What would happen if DO was insoluble in water?
Water could be poisonous as some hard metals would dissolve into in with out the presence of DO. As well, fish and aquatic plant would die if there was no oxygen. Drinking water would not taste as good either. A good thing that could occur would be that pipes would not corrode as quickly.
Would it matter if you made a saucepan out of calcium?
Yes, it would matter because calcium is a highly reactive metal that would quickly corrode when exposed to water or acidic foods. This would make it unsuitable for cooking as it would contaminate the food and potentially pose health hazards. It is not a practical material for making cookware.
Why is pure iron not good for a hip replacement?
Iron will corrode (rust) in the body for a start. It is also not strong enough, the surface would also wear quickly.
Why is sodium not used for cutlery?
Sodium is a highly reactive metal and would react with moisture in the air or food, which could be dangerous. It would also tarnish and corrode quickly due to its reactivity. Therefore, sodium is not suitable for use in cutlery.
Why would water be at the bottom of the water heater?
1- Condensation because the tank is cooler then the ambient temperature when water is being drawn2- The tank is starting to corrode
Why don't we make ships of sodium or magnesium?
We don't use them because they react with water. Sodium reacts quickly and quite violently, magnesium is slower, but would still be eaten away. In fact we deliberately use blocks of magnesium on the hulls of ships so that they will corrode in preference to the iron hull.
Does canal water carries potassium?
Some canals might have potassium, some would not.
Would water freeze quickly then coke?
Yes pure water freezes more quickly than water with solvents (sugar, acid, etc.) like in Coke
Which would corrode more quickly a pipe with hot water or a pipe with cold water?
the pipe with the hot water will.]The piping with cold water as many hydronic systems are over 100 years old and the piping looks as new as the day it was installedAs long as thermo stress and velocity are taken into consideration hot water lines can last longer then their cold countter parts as cold piping becomes more brittle over the years
What would happen if you put a water lily the desert?
If the water lilly was placed in an area with permanent water. it would probably do fine. Without water, however, it would quickly die.
Why wouldn't pure iron be suitable for a hip replacement?
Iron is prone to rusting in the presence of water. If you placed iron in the body, which is mainly water, it would rust and corrode. This means it disintergrates. It would also release dangerous amounts of Iron Oxides into the blood.
What if someone put bleach in your fuel tank?
the engine would corrode and get limescale.
