Copper is much more expensive than most steel.
Copper. Copper has a hardness of 2.5-3 on the Mohs scale, while a steel knife generally has a hardness of around 5.5 - 6.5. This means that a steel knife can scratch copper, but a copper penny cannot scratch a steel knife.
Copper sulfate can react with carbon steel to cause corrosion, as it is a corrosive agent. This reaction can lead to the formation of copper deposits on the steel surface, which can accelerate rusting and degradation of the steel. It is important to avoid exposing carbon steel to copper sulfate solutions to prevent this reaction.
IF THE COPPER SULFATE DISSOLVES IN WATER, HAS A BLUE COLOR. WHEN STEEL WOOL IS MIXED WITH COPPER SULFATE,, THE STEEL WOOL DISSAPEARS, A BROWNISH SOLID FORMS, AND THE COLOR OF THE SOLUTION CHANGES FROM BLUE TO GREEN.Copper is produced.
When copper sulfate is mixed with steel wool, a redox reaction occurs where the copper ions in the copper sulfate solution gain electrons from the steel wool, causing the copper to plate onto the surface of the steel wool. This results in the formation of copper metal and iron sulfate.
Yes, copper is softer than stainless steel and can scratch it if rubbed against it with enough force. It's recommended to avoid using copper utensils or cleaning tools on stainless steel surfaces to prevent scratching.
A 1942 copper penny is worth between $0.15 and $3.00. If you have a 1943 copper penny it is worth a lot more. In 1943 because of the war and the need for copper pennies in that year were made from steel. Steel pennies from 1943 are worth around $0.30 and $2.50. If you have a real 1943 copper penny take it to a coin shop or dealer and have them check it out to see if it is real.
That is NOT correct. Copper conducts heat better than steel.
5-10 cents.
Yes in that you can actually sell them, but you can get an entire roll of 50 for $7.00 on eBay.
-In 1943, pennies were made out of steel instead of copper. A 1943 pure copper penny is a rare mint error, and is worth lots.
The most valuable ones are the 1943 copper penny, and the even more rare 1944 steel penny.
Copper pans are a lot more durable than ceramic pans. However, they are not as durable as steel pans.
They are probably bits of rust rather than copper chunks, so the coin is probably worth a few cents at most.
There isn't a "steel copper" penny. US cents were made of steel - but no copper - during 1943 to conserve copper for use in ammunition. Up till 1982 other dates of cents were made of a bronze alloy that was 95% copper, but no steel. A few 1943 cents were struck in bronze by accident but these are very rare and none have been found in many years.
The 1943 penny was not made with copper, like all other years. Copper was funneled to the War Department so the 1943 penny was made from steel and other compounds.
Copper is the normal metal for 1944 pennies -- it's worth about 2 cents. Now if you had a 1944 made of steel, or a 1943 made of copper, then you might have something. Dan
wipe the dust outta yer eyes its a copper penny
