Term used to describe a material that can be hammered or rolled into shape?
Malleable.See Web Links for a definition.Ductile is a similar word. Both are commonly applied to describe metals.
Physical characteristics of solid non-metals?
the physical characteristics of a non metal are not ductile meaning it cant be drawn into wires non mallable meaning it cant be rolled into thin sheets also its poor in luster meaning its not shinny also nonmetals are brittle
What are the difference between ductility and plasticity?
Ductility and malleability are two properties of metals that describe specific tendencies in certain metals. Ductility describes the property of the ability to stretch a metal, without being damaged. Highly ductile materials are useful for stretching into wires. Malleability describes the property of a metals ability to be deformed under compression. Highly malleable materials can be readily rolled or hammered into sheets. While these properties are similar, different materials react differently in these circumstances. Gold or copper for example, are both highly ductile and malleable, whilst lead is only malleable.
How do you make a lawn?
to make a lawn you can either buy turf (rolled up lawn) or buy lawn seed.
What are the advantages of hot rolling?
Hot rolled steel is steel that is rolled out when it is hot. We often see clips of sheets, slabs or bars of red-hot steel being rolled to give them a required shape. As steel becomes hotter, it can behave in a more plastic way and can be more easily sized and shaped by the rollers. We see flat sheets or long bars and rods of steel come out of the rollers. Railroad track is hot rolled to make it into the shape we know. We know that steel that is hot rolled will be more flexible than cold rolled steel because the hot-rolled steel has larger crystal structure. Cold rolling creates smaller crystals in the matrix, and that makes cold-rolled steel stronger and harder, but less flexible. If the cold rolling process is not carefully monitored, the steel can become brittle and can be hard to work with.
Which of the following terms means tha metals can be rolled into thin sheets as in aluminum foil or beaten into complex shapes?
malleable
What metals can be rolled into thin sheets as in aluminum foil or beaten into complex shapes?
The application of heat in extremely high temperatures make metals malleable.
What word means that metals can be rolled into thin sheets?
We say they are malleable. The word comes from malleusthe Latin word for hammer, because originally metals would be beaten out into thin sheets.
Is stretching out aluminum a chemical change?
Beating aluminum to make aluminum foil is a physicalchange, and not a chemical one. Note, however, that aluminum is generally rolled to make foil rather than beaten. The ductility of aluminum is a physical characteristic of this amazing metal that makes it possible for us to do that.
What is the process called when metals are rolled into thin sheets like aluminum foil?
The process of rolling metals into sheets is called (no surprise) rolling. The metal is passed through a rolling mill and is reduced in size in steps. The metal might be hot rolled or cold rolled, and the choice of process depends on the metal and on what the finished product needs to be like. In the case of aluminum foil, a block of aluminum is first hot rolled, and the metal is passed through the rolling mill a number of times until it is thin enough to be rolled and moved to a cold rolling mill. In the cold rolling mill, it goes through a number of roller sets until the desired thickness is achieved.
Which element is rolled in a foil and used in your kitchen?
Aluminum
What cannot be rolled into wires or pounded into sheets?
Metalloids, Metals, Non-metals NotesThe answer is liquid because liquid cannot be rolled into wires orpounded into sheets.
Which element is rolled into foil and kept in the kitchen?
That element is aluminum.
What element is rolled into a foil found and used in a kitchen?
aluminum
Metals are said to be malleable because?
they can be hammered or rolled into shapes
What is the property of metals that allow them to be rolled without breaking?
malleability
Particles of solids tend to stay very close together from each other when they are pulled That way some solids can turned into thin wires How is that property called?
This is the way we describe the ductility of metals. A ductile metal can be "pulled" (called "drawing" by the industry) and made into wire, or rolled and turned into foil. Copper is drawn into wire and aluminum is rolled into foil, and both metals will stand up to the processes because they have the physical property of ductility. Look below for links.
