A metal is classified as a non-ferrous metal if it has no iron in it, tip (if a magnet does not stick to a metal, it is non-ferrous)

Non-ferrous metals:

Brass

Copper

Nickel

Tin

Ferrous metals:

Steel

Types of alloys?

brass, steel and bronze are the most common alloys. they are made of: brass: 35% zinc and 65% copper - uses, musical instruments steel: 99% iron and 1% carbon - uses, tools, car bodies etc bronze: 87.5% copper and 12.5% tin - uses, boat hardware and screws etc some not so common alloys are alnico (aluminium and nickel and cobalt - used to make magnets) and stainless steel (18% chromium, 80.6% iron, 1% nickel and 0.4% carbon - used to make surgical tools and tableware and cookware.)


What are three advantages of some alloys when compared to pure metals?

Alloys are sometimes more useful than pure metals because alloys are stronger - or tougher (toughness is resistance to fracture). Pure metals tend to be softer than alloys and therefore tend to get dented, scratched, or broken/fractured more easily. Alloys are often lower cost than pure metals but not necessarily so. As an example, stainless steel is more expensive than pure iron.

In a modern industrial plant the most likely polyphase power system in use is a A. one-phase system. C. three-phase system. B. two-phase system. D. four-phase system.?

A "three-phase system" is a polyphase system having three phases. The term "polyphase system" just means a system having multiple phases. If it is used by itself, "a polyphase system" doesn't mean "a three-phase system".


Who was the first ever person to invent anything?

we don't know. he/she was definitely not a modern human. Whoever it was was probably a common ancestor to both chimps and men, which would place it over three million years ago.

What are the most common use of nonferrous alloys?

alloys are adding of certain metals with iron or steel in order to increase its individual properties.for example the knife which is commonly used in kitchens are in high danger of rusting due to the moisture content of air in kitchens,so certain mixture of zinc is plated on the knife to resist rust.this process is called galvanization

How much elemental iron is in 90 mg of ferrous fumarate?

Thirty three percent of a ferrous fumarate is retained in the form of elemental iron, so for a 90 mg dose, we'd take 33% of 90mg which equals 29.7mg of elemental iron.

iron , cobalt and nickel are good magnetic materials. ------------------------------------------------------- Fe Co Ni. ie Ferrous, Cobalt and Nickel are the three ferro magnetic materials. It is better to say as rhyming with Marconi. FECONI. One more important secret is Ferrous is having 26 as its atomic number, Co 27 and Ni 28. All the three are neighbours being seated in the periodic table.
