It doesn't really. Solvent attack is when a solvent reacts with a polymer to break its covalent bonds. Metals don't have covalent bonds. A few very reactive metals react with water, but it's not the same type of reaction.

A substance that does not dissolve in a solvent is said to be what in that solvent?

- Sand does not dissolve in water- Plastic does not dissolve in water- metals do not dissolve in water


What is a solution whose solute and solvent are both solid metals?

A solution in which both the solute and solvent are solid metals is known as a metallic alloy. In an alloy, one metal (the solute) is dissolved in another metal (the solvent) to create a homogeneous mixture with improved properties, such as strength, ductility, or corrosion resistance. Common examples include bronze, which is primarily copper with tin as the solute, and steel, which is mainly iron with carbon or other metals added.


What is the solubility of a metal?

Metals are not soluble in water; the chemical reaction with water is not solubility. Metals are soluble in acids; this solubility depends on the specific metal and acid, temperature, pressure, stirring, form of the metal, etc.


Why alkali metals cannot be used in voltaic cells?

Alkali metals, like lithium, are highly reactive with water and moisture, which can lead to uncontrollable reactions in voltaic cells, causing safety hazards. Additionally, alkali metals have low melting points, making them unsuitable for use in high-temperature voltaic cell applications.


What is the solvent in the solid solution of a gold ring?

The solvent and solute in yellow gold is a solid solution of solutes (silver) and copper) in a solvent (gold). Sorry Please dont rate this bad, I am just giving you a possible answer. :)

How does temperature affect the solubilty of a solid in a solvent?

Usually, higher temperature = more soluble in the solvent.


What is the solvent and solute of a nickel coin?

The solvent in a nickel coin is the metal nickel itself, while the solute would be any impurities or other metals present in the alloy. Nickel coins are typically composed of a mixture of nickel, copper, and other metals.


What is the solvent in amalgam?

What is the primary function of the solvent extraction in Metallurgy extractive industry?

The primary function of solvent extraction in the metallurgical extractive industry is to selectively separate and concentrate specific metals or minerals from a solution. This process allows for the extraction of valuable metals from ores or solutions by using a solvent that can selectively dissolve the desired metal, separating it from impurities.


How does temperature of the solvent affect the dissolving of solute?

The higher the temperature the faster the solute dissolves and mixes with the solvent substances.


What is the solute and the solvent in solder?

In soldering, the solute is the metal alloy that is being melted to join two metals together. Typically, this alloy consists of tin and lead. The solvent, on the other hand, is the flux which helps to clean the surface of the metals and remove any oxides, ensuring a better bond between the metals and the solder.


What are the three that affect solubility?

Pressure, type of solvent, temperature
