Copper melts at a lower temperature than iron. Therefore, in order to remove it from the ore in which it is found, and in order to work it, a hotter fire is needed to for iron than for copper. Making a fire hot enough to extract and work iron is more difficult, so iron tools were more difficult to obtain than copper tools.
The iron is higher in they reactivity scale than copper , Therefore the copper will be replaced by iron to make iron sulfate and copper by itself.
No, copper is less reactive than iron.
Since iron is a more active metal than copper, the iron would replace the copper in the copper sulfate, forming iron sulfate, and releasing elemental copper. The copper will not shape itself into a copper vessel, so eventually, the iron sulfate would leak out of the iron vessel, and eventually, if there is enough copper sulfate, the iron vessel will cease to exist.
Iron is more reactive than copper.
No, Copper is Cu, Iron is Fe

Iron smelting required a lot of wood, which the Egyptians did not have
Iron tools were more difficult to obtain than copper ones because iron requires higher temperatures to smelt and shape, which necessitates more specialized knowledge and resources. Additionally, iron ores are less widely available compared to copper ores, making iron harder to source. The technology for working with iron was also more complex and took longer to develop compared to copper.
There are several reasons: * Iron is less malleable than copper so the tools can be thinner and lighter and still have the durability and strength needed * Iron has a higher melting point than copper * Iron does not conduct heat as well as copper so the handles of iron tools stay cooler longer * Iron is about a tenth the price of copper
copper, iron and gold
tools in ancient egypt were made out of wood, copper, bronze, and iron
The Iron Age followed the Copper Age because iron is a harder and more durable metal than copper. This made iron a more suitable material for tools, weapons, and everyday objects, leading to advancements in technology and society during the Iron Age.
Because the use of copper, an alloy of copper and tin, was used to greatly enhance societies that used it. They used it for armor, weapons and tools.
copper, bronze and iron in that order
They take iron, copper, steel, wood, etc. and shape it into its form.
Iron needs to be heated to a much higher temperature to find and mold
