Some gaseous oxygen from the air, reacts with the iron, forming rust (Fe + O2). This additional oxygen increases the total volume of, what was, just the nail.
Iron fillings have a much greater surface area and so are more exposed than a large iron nail which would have a smaller surface area exposed to oxygen and water.
Beacuse they have a larger surface area
Clubbing of the nails are indicative of an underlying disorder. There is no cure for clubbing of the nails, but the underlying cause can be treated.
Selenium is important for hair and nails.
Finger nails (and toe nails) are made of keratin.
Nails are metal.
Normally nails aren't made of an alloy however they are galvanized, this means they have a coating of a less reactive metal such as Zinc as to prevent rusting of the nails. Nails are normally made out of iron.
Nails (and finger nails) have volume.
iron (steel) for example if its not galvanized
You can use aluminum spray paint to cover rusted nails on a deck. Every home improvement store like WalMart, Lowes and Home Depot.
the closer the magnet is to the nails the greater the magnetic force between the magnet and the nails
No. The mass of one liter of feathers is not greater than the mass of 1 liter of nails. The mass of 1 liter of nails is greater than the mass of 1 liter of feathers. That's why 1 liter of nails is heavier than 1 liter of feathers.
Size generally refers to volume in respect to containers. As a result a bag filled with nails will have more mass than an equal sized bag filled with cotton. Inertia is proportional to mass and the velocity the mass is travelling at, or alternately the mass and the acceleration it is subjected to. As a consequence a bag filled with nails travelling at the same velocity (or subjected to the same acceleration) as an equal sized bag filled with cotton has a greater inertia due to its greater mass.
yeh ive had them done before and they looked great..
Yes, A Rusted Nail can conduct Electricity because every element has some free Electrons in it, and remember, free electrons always conduct Electricity. --Dhruv
Unless the guinea pig's teeth are rusted nails, I would hope not. You may need to go see about getting a rabies shot though.
They become nails upon them because it makes the guilt or remorse for the injustice greater on their conscience.
Any material containing iron or steel is subject to rusting when exposed to air or moisture. If you pull apart an old fence, you will always find rusted nails in the wood where moisture has rotted them. The modern way is to use galvanised nails or specially coated screws instead. In any hardware store you will see green and brown screws made for outdoor use.
It is easiest to trim gel nails to the desired length before applying them, but they can also be trimmed after they are complete. They can be clipped and shaped like real nails.
