Even in its pure form, iron is stronger than copper (although copper doesn't rust the way iron does) and iron is also used in making various kinds of steel which are much stronger than iron, and incomparably stronger than copper. Copper can also be used in alloys which are stronger than pure copper, such as brass and bronze, however, even the strongest copper alloy is much weaker than steel. Copper is much more electrically conductive than steel, and along with its greater flexibility and resistance to chemical corrosion, this makes it much better for wiring than iron or any iron alloy would be. So for each metal, there are particular uses.

Bronze (an alloy of mostly copper with up to 23% tin) is a much stronger metal than iron. This is why during the early iron age, the Roman foot soldiers were issued iron swords but their commanders had bronze swords.
Yes, iron is a stronger reducing agent than copper. This is because iron has a greater ability to lose electrons and be oxidized compared to copper. Iron readily donates electrons to other substances, making it more effective at reducing them.
Iron was discovered after copper and bronze. Iron tools and weapons revolutionized human society by being stronger and more durable than previous materials. This discovery marked the beginning of the Iron Age.
It forms copper (I) oxide and copper (II) oxide, mostly the (II) oxide that is black. If you talk about what color is emitted a green/turquoise when heated. If in a oxygen-poor atmosphere it melts without oxidising.
The iron will displace the copper as it is more reactive. here's the equation: iron + copper sulphate = iron sulphate +copper
Contacting the iron powder with an aqueous solution of copper (II) salts will produce a copper coating on iron powder: Iron is higher in the electromotive series than copper and therefore will displace copper from the solution, resulting in copper-coated iron and dissolved iron cations. When all of the surface of the iron powder has been coated with copper, the iron will stop reacting because it no longer has access to the copper ions in solution, the access of the iron being blocked by the layer of copper coating the remaining iron powder.

well if a robot fight happened between an iron robot vs a copper robot and they are dezined the same i would go for the iron robot
nope. when u look at the reaction chart iron is stronger than copper so no reaction occur.
the iron turns into copper, this means it goes a redish colour. this is because iron is stronger than copper, so the iron takes over and bags the chloride for itself. which makes iron chloride. CuCo2 + Fe = FeCo2 + Cu CopperChloride + iron = IronChloride + Copper

Iron is a compound iron nail is a iron ore which means that the iron nail is a mixture of metals such as copper and zinc added to make the nail stronger.
Copper is more dense than iron, if that is what is being asked. The density of copper is about 8.94 grams per cubic centimeter. Iron had a density of about 7.874 grams per cubic centimeter.
Soft iron will not have any magnetic properties unless it is magnetized, while a piece of copper will not be attracted to a magnet at all. A magnet will attract both soft iron and copper, but the attraction will be stronger for the soft iron due to its ability to become magnetized.
The word equation for the reaction between iron sulfate and copper is: iron sulfate + copper → copper sulfate + iron.
Yes, copper can displace iron from iron oxide through a displacement reaction where copper will replace iron in the compound. This reaction will form copper oxide and free iron.
It forms copper (I) oxide and copper (II) oxide, mostly the (II) oxide that is black. If you talk about what color is emitted a green/turquoise when heated. If in a oxygen-poor atmosphere it melts without oxidising.
Iron is more reactive than copper, so when iron is added to copper sulfate solution, iron displaces copper in the reaction and forms iron sulfate. This process is known as a displacement reaction. This allows copper to be extracted from copper sulfate solution using iron.
