What else can I help you with?
Will the sun cause aluminum to set fire?
No, the sun's rays alone cannot ignite aluminum to set it on fire. High temperatures and a potential ignition source would be needed for aluminum to catch fire.
Is aluminum fire resistant?
yes aluminum can catch on fire. in fact it was one of the more worrisome reasons why they didn't use aluminum in wars as much as they do steel. the following link contains more information relating to this subject and will answer more. p.s. don't try and light aluminum on fire at home! you can actually light it and when it lights it can get pretty bad! if i hadn't been using smaller amounts i might have burned my house down!
What temperature do you need to melt an empty soda can?
As soda cans are made of aluminium, they will melt at 660.37 C
Why did the ice cube directly under the light melt faster when it had no cover than when it was covered with aluminum foil?
The aluminum foil reflects the light and heat away from the ice cube, slowing down the melting process. Without the foil cover, the direct exposure to the light causes the ice cube to absorb more heat, resulting in faster melting.
Will copper coin melt on 100 degree if put on gas fire for 12 hrs?
Copper melts at around 1984°F (1085°C), so it is unlikely that a copper coin would melt on a gas fire at 100°F (37.8°C) in 12 hours. The temperature would need to be significantly higher to melt copper.
Can you build a camp fire hot enough to melt glass?
No
Would a brass key melt in a fire?
not a normal camp fire. it requires about 1300 F.
Can you heat up aluminum foil?
Heating aluminum foil can cause it to melt or catch fire, so it is not recommended to heat it up.
Will a beer can melt in a wood fire?
No they don't melt in a camp fire. Beer cans are typically aluminum which has a melting point around 1200 degrees fahrenheit. A typical campfire can reach temps around 900 degrees fahrenheit. +++ Aluminium can melt in a wood fire but more commonly the metal oxidises instead. Steel cans won't melt in such a fire, but they oxidise heavily.
What would happen if something was lit on fire but it was made out of aluminum?
Aluminum does not catch fire easily because it has a high ignition temperature and forms a protective oxide layer when exposed to air. However, if enough heat is applied, it can melt and burn in a fiery molten form. The combustion of aluminum typically results in intense heat and bright white flames.
How much aluminum is required to melt 2 kg of aluminum?
800 kj
Can metal melt in a home fire?
Yes, metals can melt in a home fire if the fire reaches temperatures high enough to exceed the melting point of the metal. The melting point of different metals varies, with some requiring higher temperatures to melt than others. Items made of materials with lower melting points, such as aluminum, may be more likely to melt in a typical home fire compared to those made of materials with higher melting points, like steel.
Will ice melt in aluminum?
ice actually melts pretty fast on aluminum, it will probably take 15 minutes
Why does aluminum melt in hydrochloric acid?
Aluminum reacts with hydrochloric acid to form aluminum chloride and hydrogen gas. The heat generated by this reaction can cause the aluminum to melt. Additionally, the presence of chloride ions in the solution can further accelerate the reaction, leading to the melting of aluminum.
When was Camp Fire USA created?
Camp Fire USA was created in 1910.
Does mozzarella cheese have aluminum in it ive heard they put it in so that it will melt well?
Possibly. Some cheese has aluminum added so that it will slice more easily and melt more readily. The FDA does not require that the aluminum be listed as an ingredient.
Will aluminum foil make things melt faster?
No, aluminum foil does not make things melt faster. In fact, aluminum foil can act as an insulator, which can help slow down the melting process by reducing heat transfer.
