What base metals contain iron?

Base metals that contain iron include steel, which is an alloy of iron and carbon, and cast iron, which also contains a higher carbon content along with other elements. Additionally, alloys like wrought iron and ferroalloys, which combine iron with other metals such as manganese or silicon, are also considered base metals. Other base metals like nickel and cobalt can be found in iron-rich ores, although they are not primarily composed of iron.


What nutrient mineral found in milk and leafy veggies?

Depending what kind of leaves, most leaves contain mostly carbon, small traces of iron, potassium, and other metals (assuming they can be found in the soil).


What types of metals have impure elements?

Metals can be found impure, when they are extracted from the earth's crust, where they may be combined with other chemical elements, in which case they may need to be chemically separated to make it the best for use.


Why are neither the alkali metals or the alkaline-earth metals found uncombined in nature?

Alkali metals and alkaline-earth metals are highly reactive and easily form compounds with elements in the environment. Consequently, they are not found in their pure form in nature. Instead, they are typically found as compounds with other elements such as oxygen or sulfur.


What group of metals is so reactive that the metals are never found as uncombined elements in nature?

Alkali metals, such as sodium and potassium, are so reactive that they are never found as uncombined elements in nature. They readily react with other elements to form compounds.

What nonmetals are found in the carbon family?

Carbon is the only non-metal in carbon family. The other elements are either metalloids or metals.


What metal is found in coal?

Coal can contain various metals, with common ones being iron, aluminum, and manganese. However, it is not a significant source of these metals compared to other minerals. Trace amounts of other metals like mercury, arsenic, and lead can also be found in coal.

Carbon


Are metals are found in rocks called ores?

Yes metals are found in rocks called ores. Most metals are more reactive and are found combined with other elements in rocks.

Depending what kind of leaves, most leaves contain mostly carbon, small traces of iron, potassium, and other metals (assuming they can be found in the soil).


How do you extract precious metals from coal?

Precious metals are not typically extracted from coal as coal is primarily composed of carbon, hydrogen, and other elements. Precious metals are usually mined from ore deposits and not found in coal formations.


How is silver found?

Silver is found as free metal, or in minerals of other metals.


Are alkaline metals the only metals found in the earths crust?

No, other elemental categories, such as alkali metals and transition metals are also found on the Earth's crust. One such alkali metal that is frequently found on the Earth's crust is potassium (K).


Is metal a compound element or mixture?

it depends. A lot of metals are elements like iron for example, these can be mixed to form alloys(compounds) steel for example is an aloy of carbon and iron. Metals exist as mixtures when they are found in their ores(mixed with other metals and minerals) and must be separated from their mixtures by smelting.


What is a alloys made of?

An alloy is a pure metal such as iron, this is mixed with other metals from the transition metals which can be found in between group 2 and 3 in the periodic table. Except in some cases like steel where a non-metal (in this case carbon) is added.


Why is carbon not found in the electrochemical series?

Carbon is not found in the electrochemical series because it is not easily oxidized or reduced in aqueous solutions. This means it does not readily participate in standard redox reactions like other metals. As a result, it is not commonly used as an electrode in electrochemical cells for comparison.
