What else can I help you with?
Is gold used in aeroplanes?
Gold is only used in conductors and wires in airplanes. This is because gold is very lightweight and does not rust.
Can gold be pulled into wires?
Absolutely, gold is extremely ductile and easily pulls into wires. These wires are used in both jewelry and microelectronics.Wire gold also occurs naturally in some deposits and is very easy to pan when it is present.
Why not use gold as wires since its free electrons is farther away from the nucleus than copper?
Copper is used instead of gold because gold is way to expensive and not practical.
What is gold used in other than jewelry?
Gold can be used to make extremely thin wires, for use in highly miniaturized electronic circuitry. Cell phones contain a tiny amount of gold. Gold is widely used in dentistry, to make crowns for teeth.
What is a metal that is often used in wires that conduct electricity?
Copper, and to a lesser extent gold, are used in conductors.
Is there another mineral that can be used in wires if you run out of gold?
Copper, the usual use for wire, is a great substitute for gold. Figuring it is much cheaper as well as easier to work with. Copper wires should be covered with rubber or plastic coverings. Copper is a conductor, like gold, in other words, it can carry an electric current. Good Luck!
How is gold used in society?
While the value of money is always changing, the value of gold always stays the same. Also, gold is very valuable in our society today as it is used as wires in computers, cellphones, etc., because it is very malleable and can be stretched into wires thinner than hair; and also because it is very low on the reactivity series, it does not rust
Can other metals be used for wire?
Yes. The big high-tension wires are made of steel. You could make gold wires--very expensive military electronics have gold wiring in some places. Silver is a good wire to use. Copper and aluminum are used for most wiring because they work well and are inexpensive.
What are the different colors of wires used in electrical circuits, including white, green, and black wires?
In electrical circuits, white wires are typically used as neutral wires, green wires are used as ground wires, and black wires are commonly used as hot wires.
Is there gold in ic chips?
In the chip itself? No.The packaging and interconnects often contain gold however.Bond wires are usually aluminum, but sometimes gold is used instead.Lead frames and pins are commonly gold plated to reduce corrosion.etc.There is a type of discrete bipolar junction transistor that is doped with gold, but as far as I have been able to find this is not used in ICs.
What are the different colors of wires used in electrical installations, including red, white, green, and black wires?
The different colors of wires used in electrical installations have specific meanings. Red wires are typically used for hot wires, white wires for neutral wires, green wires for ground wires, and black wires for hot wires as well.
What are two intresting facts about gold?
- gold has an yellow color - gold is expensive - gold is very malleable - gold is very ductile - gold is not corroded - gold is used for jewelry - gold is also used in electronics - gold was used in dentistry - colloidal gold was used in medicine
