What the hardness of iron?
It depends on the deposit. What deposit are you talking about? What measure of hardness are you after? e.g. UCS, Moh's Hardness Scale e.t.c. On moh it is 4 Brinnel hardness it is 490
What is the relationship between hardness and brittleness for iron?
the hardness of iron decreases with increase in brittleness in general..however when the temp is increased, the elasticity increases and the brittleness reduces, it continues to show the increasing trend in hardness until a transition temperature, after which the hardness starts decreasing again.
