Carbon has an atomic number of 6 while Iron has an atomic number of 26.
Carbon has an Atomic Mass of 12.011 and Iron has an atomic mass of 55.847
The number of electrons, protons and neutrons are all different
They have a different number of valence electrons.
They have different boiling points, melting/freezing points and densities.
The size of the atomic radius is different (Iron being bigger)
They have different electronegativites and first ionization points.
Carbon is non-metal and Iron is a transition metal.
They have different charges.
Carbon is a group 14(4A) and Iron is a group 8. Carbon is a period 2 element, Iron is a period 4 element.
Iron will react with water to create a colorful solution.
(It's more than 2, but you have more options now.)
Iron and carbon.
Density and melting point are different.
Allotropes are the different forms of a compound. For example iron has 3 well known allotropes: alpha iron (α) a.k.a. ferrite, gamma iron (γ) a.k.a. austenite, and delta iron (δ). They form depending on temperature and pressure the iron goes to. Another example is diamond and graphite which are both allotropes of carbon.
Respiration by animals is one of the ways through which carbon dioxide is released to the atmosphere. The other way is through burning fuels that are carbon-based.
Carbon and oxygen or two different elements, with different masses.
two different elements
Iron is an element in its own right. So there are no two elements that make iron. However, Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon. Iron and Carbon are tweo different elements. So steel contains two different elements.
Steel contains Iron and Carbon. Various steels contain different compounds of the two plus other material to create different alloys.
Steel is primarily Iron and Carbon. However, other elements can be present in different alloys, such as the following:ManganeseChromiumnickelirontungstenmolybdenumborontitaniumvanadiumCobaltniobiumphosphorussulfursilicontraces of oxygen, nitrogen, and copper
Combustion: In combustion, oxygen combines with a substance to form an oxide. For example, in the combustion of carbon, carbon dioxide (CO2) is formed. Rusting: When iron is exposed to oxygen and moisture, it forms iron oxide (rust) through a process known as corrosion.
SigmaAldrich sells pure iron in many different forms. Given that, the alloy of carbon and iron that we call steel is far more common for two reasons: iron picks up carbon during smelting (the second phase of iron production is to burn off the excess carbon) and steel is a far more useful metal than iron.
Iron is, itself, and element. It is not a compound of two elements.
They are the same element (Carbon) but the atoms in the two are linked in two different ways, giving two very different materials.
Iron and carbon.
The two elements that make up steel are mainly carbon and iron.
Density and melting point are different.
