What else can I help you with?
What do you get when you mix silver and tin?
When you mix silver and tin, you get an alloy called silver solder. This alloy has a lower melting point than silver or tin alone, making it useful for joining metals together. Silver solder is commonly used in jewelry making and in plumbing applications.
Why does solder melt before lead and tin?
Solder melts before pure tin or pure lead because the molecules of the tin and the lead which make up the solder have not bonded chemically (they have only been mixed together so there has been not chemical reaction), so can easily vibrate quicker, therefore they will melt quicker.
What is a alloy of tin and led?
An alloy of tin and lead is known as solder. Solder is commonly used in electronics and plumbing to create connections between components and to seal joints due to its low melting point and ability to bond with different metal surfaces.
What does solder consist of?
Solder has traditionally been a tin lead alloy, but there are many variations depending on the application:jeweler's solder or silver solder, has always contained silver to prevent the solder from dissolving silver and/or gold from the item being solderedother low melting point metals are sometimes added to make low melting point solderpure tin solder is sometimes used to eliminate toxic leadetc.Solder sold in the form of wire is sometimes hollow with a core filled with flux paste to make soldering easier without the need for extensive precleaning of the work so that the solder properly wets. For plumbing purposes (where the work can be rinsed afterwords) the flux paste is acidic and very corrosive, for electronics work the flux paste is a rosin.
What is the alloy composed of lead and tin?
Solder Also Pewter is a malleable metal alloy, traditionally 85-99% tin, with the remainder consisting of copper, antimony, bismuth and lead.
Can you give a sentence for the word solder?
I just want to solder this tin soldier back onto his tin horse. Let's solder our bowling team with a pizza night!
What is the chemical formula for solder?
The chemical formula for solder can vary depending on the type of solder being used, but a common formula is Sn (tin) mixed with Pb (lead), known as Sn-Pb solder. The ratio of tin to lead can differ, with common ratios being 60% tin and 40% lead (60/40 solder) or 63% tin and 37% lead (63/37 solder).
What is the compound symbol for solder?
The compound symbol for solder can vary depending on the specific composition. Common solder compounds include tin-lead solder (Sn-Pb) and lead-free solder such as tin-silver-copper (Sn-Ag-Cu) or tin-copper (Sn-Cu).
What percentage of tin is in solder?
'Standard' solder is 60% tin, and 40% lead. There are other solders available (silver for use in jewellery etc)
Which alloy is made from tin and lead?
Solder
What do you get when you mix tin and silver?
Silver solder.
Is solder a element or a compound?
It is a mixture
What products are made using soft solder?
soft solder is made of tin and lead. :D
How do you extract tin from solder?
The best way would be to dissolve the solder in some hydrochloric acid or Muriatic acid and then use the process of electrolysis to grow the Tin crystals. I think the tin crystals will form on the cathode....so use an inert electrode such as graphite.
What materials are used in soldering?
solder tin, lead,
What metal alloy do tin and lead make?
Solder
How tin used for in a mobile phone?
Tin could be in a mixture with lead to form the solder. Solder is used to hold the components to the printed circuit board.
