What else can I help you with?
Are metals soluble in water?
Metals are generally not soluble in water, with the exception of certain alkali metals and alkaline earth metals.
Do metals gain or lose weight when rusted?
Rust is also known as an object becoming oxidated, this means it gains oxygen. A normal iron atom when left in the atmosphere will rust and gain oxygen FeO this means when things rust they gain weight.
What is the solubility of alkali metals in water?
The solubility of alkali metals in water is high. Alkali metals such as lithium, sodium, and potassium readily dissolve in water to form alkaline solutions.
Which metals react slowly with cold water but vigorously with steam?
All metals, if they do react with water at all, react faster in steam than in water. However, the metals that react SLOWLY with cold water are the metals from Group-IIA(Magnesium, Calcium, etc).
What metals react with acids not water?
Metals such as zinc, aluminum, and iron can react with acids but not with water. When these metals react with acids, they undergo a chemical reaction that produces hydrogen gas and a salt. In contrast, these metals do not react with water to produce hydrogen gas.
Is aluminum light in weight compared to other metals?
Yes, aluminum is light in weight compared to many other metals.
How much does metal weigh under water?
Metal weighs less under water than out of it. This is because water is much more dense than air, and anything put in water will feel the effects of the water. The affect appears as what is called buoyancy, which is a force. When we think of metals, we generally think of them as being at least a little bit heavy. Most times that we put a piece of metal in water, it sinks, so let's look at this as the nature of the question. When a piece of metal sinks, it displaces a volume of water equal to its own volume. The metal, which had a certain weight in air, will now weigh less. Its weight in water will equal its weight in air less the weight of the volume of water that it displaced when sinking. Different metals have different densities, and will (of course) have different weights for a comparable volume other metals. [This is a general answer. It ignores trying to sink metal into solid water, and it also overlooks the chemistry of some metals. Some metals, like those in groups 1 and 2 of the periodic table, will react with water. No tricks here; nothing up the sleeves.]
Are metals soluble in water?
Metals are generally not soluble in water, with the exception of certain alkali metals and alkaline earth metals.
What are the general properties of metal?
well it depends because if it was iron it wouldn't bend that easily and it wouldn't be light weight but if it was something like aluminum it would be easy to bend and it would be light weight also most metals are water proof and all metals conduct heat.
Do metals gain or lose weight when rusted?
Rust is also known as an object becoming oxidated, this means it gains oxygen. A normal iron atom when left in the atmosphere will rust and gain oxygen FeO this means when things rust they gain weight.
Which metals does not react with water?
Most metals do not react with water, especially at room temperature. It is easier to state which metals DO react with water. Those would be Li, K, Sr, Ca and Na. Those reacting with hot water (steam) would be Mg, Al, Zn and Cu. Most other metals do NOT react with water.
How do yo know if a product will sink in water?
A product will sink in water if its density is greater than that of water. This can be determined by comparing the weight of the object to the weight of the water it displaces. If the weight of the object is greater, it will sink; if it is less, it will float.
What are unreactive metals?
metals which dont react with water or acid are called unreactive metals
How do alkali metals react to cold water?
alkali metals react violently in cold water
What are the light weight metals?
Aluminium is the lightest one.
What is the solubility of alkali metals in water?
The solubility of alkali metals in water is high. Alkali metals such as lithium, sodium, and potassium readily dissolve in water to form alkaline solutions.
Disadvantages of using metals in construction?
Some metals are not strong enough to be able to hold tons of weight
