Yes, the lithosphere contains various types of metals and stones, including iron, aluminum, magnesium, silicon, quartz, and various types of igneous rocks. These materials play a crucial role in the formation and composition of Earth's crust.

Are most active metals found in the noble gas family?

No; the noble gas family doesn't contain any metals in it, it only has gases. Also it contains all of the least reactive elements. The most reactive metals are in the alkali metal family, group 1, lithoium , sodium, poatssium etc..


How do we use soil as natural resources?

1. You can grow food - agricultural usage. 2. You can mine it if something useful found underneath (oil, metals, etc.). If nothing, pretty much any land (subsoil) can be used as a building material (sand, clay (bricks), or stones/rocks)


What very unreactive metals are found in the ground?

Whether the elements found in the ground are reactive or not, partly depends on whether there is any other chemical there for them to react with.Gold, Platinum, Tin, and a few others close to the noble metals are less reactive, but even some reactive elements are found (uncommonly) in the native state.Silver is one of the more common ones so found, but Iron and Mercury are also found in the native state.


What is the difference between ore and pure metal?

Metals that are pure are metals that contain no other materials. Some pure metals are silver, aluminum, gold, iron, lithium, magnesium, silicon, and zinc. A full list of metallic elements (pure metals) can be found at the Related Link.


What heavy metals can be found in crude oil?

Easy answer you could have come up with by yourself I think. Crude oil, means oil straight from the ground and not refined yet. Heavy metals means not light metals. So not iron or sodium but Lead and other heavy stuff. Since oil comes from the ground and metals are mined from the ground, it makes sense that they could be found together. So if the teacher wants a different answer he should have said "how is crude oil formed" or something like that.

Is there any mining in China?

Of course, practically all the minerals, metals, coal, gemstones, building stones, etc. are mined and largely exploited in China.


What is the difference between rocks and stones?

Rocks are made up of minerals and can be any size, while stones are smaller pieces of rocks. Stones are often used for construction or decoration, while rocks are larger and found in nature.


Are there any metals formed naturally on the earth?

Yes, iron ore is one example, all metals you have ever seen are either artificially made or in found in the crust.


What metal is found naturally as an element?

Gold, silver, copper, iron, lead, mercury.


What elements are mainly found in minerals?

All the metals are usually found in ore which is a mixture of rock and metals. Carbon shows up a lot. Phosphorus is found in rocks. Any element which is solid at normal temperatures will turn up in rock or soil or plant material.


What are Metals such as iron and nickel and cobalt?

All those metals are considered to be Earth Elements, or substances that can be found on Earth and are pure since they can not be broken down into any other substances.

Alkali metals are very reactive metals.


What state are most non-metals in room temperature?

Non-metals are any of the non-metallic elements found in Groups 14, 15 and 16 of the Periodic Table. At room temperature, most non-metals exist as either gases or solids.


Do metals cell have DNA?

Metals do not have cells and therefore do not have DNA. DNA is a complex molecule that carries genetic information and is found only in living organisms. Metals are inorganic substances and do not possess the biological processes necessary for DNA.


What new kinds of metal are found now?

I think we've found all the metals that exist naturally at this point, so any "new" metals will be things that we develop or invent rather than "find".But on that point, engineers are constantly developing new alloys and combinations of materials to produce metals that have the properties needed for specific applications.
