Lead is toxic to humans (causes brain damage) thus when using a solder to join copper water pipes it is best not to use a solder containing lead as this will get into the water passing through the pipes and slowly poison the user of this water.
Yes, silver solder can be used on any color of gold---however, the joint will be white and will tarnish more rapidly.
A Conductor, SOLDER IS NOT AN INSULATOR. The most common types of solder are made of tin and lead. Another type is silver solder. All of the materials used are metals and are good conductors of both heat and electricity. If you solder something you would notice if you ever held a wire (without protection) while applying solder to it your finger would probably receive a burn (speaking from experience).
Cold solder joint: occurs when the joint doesn't fully melt, leading to poor electrical conductivity. Insufficient solder: not enough solder used, resulting in weak or incomplete bonds. Excessive solder: too much solder applied, causing bridging or short circuits. Solder balling: result of excess solder that forms into small balls. Solder splashes: occurs when excess solder splashes onto nearby components. Solder flux residue: leftover residue from flux can lead to corrosion or poor connections over time.
The two most commonly used metals in solder are tin and lead. They are typically mixed together in different proportions to create solder with different melting points and properties for various applications.
SN63BS solder is a type of leaded solder that consists of 63% tin and 37% lead, which makes it eutectic. It has a low melting point, good flow characteristics, and is commonly used in electronic and electrical applications.

Depends on the solder used. If silver solder is used it is actually stronger than the pipe itself.
Shooting solder at a special solder shooting range
The majority of boat props are aluminum. You can't solder it, it has to be welded or heli arced.
To remove melted solder, either as clean-up from a poor solder job, or in preparation for removing a component.
Only non acidic core and non resin core solder may be used. 2mm to 4mm solid solder is recommended.
A reel of solder used for joining electrical circuits together on circuit boards. Solder is made of a mixture of tin and lead and sometimes has has flux (a form of acid) in the core of the solder to ensure a clean surface for the solder to flow into.
Flux cleans the metal and helps the solder stick.
Solder typically melts at temperatures between 180°C to 190°C (360°F to 375°F), depending on the type of solder alloy being used.

Solder has been used for thousands of years, with evidence of its use dating back to around 4000 BC. The modern form of solder that we use today, typically made of a combination of tin and lead, was developed in the 19th century.
