There are several methods for joining metal to metal using heat:

Brazing and soldering are used to join two pieces of metal without melting them, by melting a different metal with a lower melting point, and letting it flow between the pieces as a joint. (Brazing is generally done at a higher temperature than soldering.) A person who does this could be called a solderer or a brazer, (but this is not a common term).

Welding is used to join two pieces of metal by melting them at the join and sometimes an additional filler piece is added. A person who does this is called a welder.

When heating metal will volume and mass change?

When heating metal, its volume typically expands due to thermal expansion, which causes the atoms in the metal to vibrate more and spread out. The mass of the metal will not change during heating unless there is a chemical reaction taking place, such as oxidation.

How does heating or cooling affect metal?

Heating metal can cause it to expand, increasing its volume and potentially altering its shape and strength. Cooling metal can cause it to contract, reducing its volume and potentially making it more brittle. Rapid heating or cooling can also lead to thermal stress and distortions in the metal.


Why can some metals be extracted from compounds by heating carbon?

Heating carbon with metal compounds can help extract the metal because carbon can act as a reducing agent. During the heating process, carbon reacts with the metal compound, and the carbon removes oxygen from the metal compound, leaving behind the pure metal. This process is known as a reduction reaction.

Why does heating a metal make it easier to shape?

Heating a metal makes it easier to shape because it increases the metal's ductility and reduces its hardness. This allows the metal atoms to move more freely and rearrange their positions, making it easier to deform the metal without it breaking.


How would a synthesis reaction cause the mass of a product to be higher than the metal in a crucible?

Heating a metal in a crucible can cause the metal to react with the surrounding gases. thus, when weighing the metal after heating, the mass increases because of the addition of the gaseous elements
