This is different for different metals.
A salt of the metal. It could be an oxide but equally, it could be a halide, carbonate, suplhate or other salt.
Yes, some drain cleaners generate heat as they break down proteins in a clogged drain pipe. This heat helps to accelerate the chemical reaction and dissolve the blockage. However, not all drain cleaners produce heat during the process.
Yes, using vinegar to clean a metal pipe can potentially cause it to rust. Vinegar is acidic and can corrode certain metals, leading to rusting over time. It's better to use a cleaner specifically designed for metal surfaces to avoid this issue.
It depends on how much each pipe can hold. And how long each pipe is.
No, Plastic is not conductive! I other words plastic can not conduct electricity therefore it can not produce resistance, and resistance is what you need to produce heat. and that heat would melt the plastic. Now if you touch a "live" wire to metal and that metal was grounded ( for example to a cold water pipe) then you would be completing the circuit, then that piece of metal would heat up very rapidly and eventually melt! of-course the smart person would not do this but if you where not so smart be prepared to get burned!!!! BE SMART!!
It is a heat shield on your exhaust pipe or muffler. The hot pipe when splashed by cold water cause the metal to expand and contract so quickly the weld cracked off and the heat shield now rattles It is a heat shield on your exhaust pipe or muffler.

I believe it is a heat shield.
of course you have a wide range temperature range left unspecified, but generally as far as the physics of any metal (with variations) would indeed expand in both length and width by a small fraction of an inch. the problem often is that when metal heats then cools rapidly it will inevitably crack - Matt
It is a number that allows the pipe to be traced all the way back to the metal it was made from, important for quality control.
This is hard to answer with out knowing what type of metal. what the pipe is being used for, the amount of pressure that may be not the pipe.
Get a metal rod, heat it really hot wrap it around a metal pipe a little bigger than your wrists. and dunk it in water to harden.
The base metal is iron - the active metal is zinc (galvanized)
Pressure rises in the tube.
Well, if it is a typical pipe bomb, it is best to use a metal pipe with very tightly screwed in metal caps. The inside consists of some sort of explosive, like a compressed flammable gas, gunpowder, or a plastic explosive like c4 or TNT. It can be detonated by a fuse or electrical wire. When the material inside of the pipe catches fire, a chemical reaction occurs, and large amounts of heat energy are released. Pressure quickly builds up inside of the pipe, causing it to expand and explode very rapidly. It is extremely dangerous to make or obtain these because the explosive material is usually not very stable, and any pipe material is bound to cause some sort of friction that may ignite the bomb. Not to mention the fact that pipe bombs are illegal in most countries.
Simple materials can be used like black plastic or metal pipe. You want materials that will absorb heat and transmit that heat to the liquid.
try slightly tapping the heater fan with a piece of metal pipe and if fan does not start running it is dead and must be replaced.
Heat pipe collectors must be mounted with a minimum tilt angle of around 25° in order for the internal fluid of the heat pipe to return to the hot absorber.
