Question
Chapter 26, Problem 26.78QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Why after heating, a metal surface develops a color pattern like an oil slick on water has to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Metals:
- Many metals that are naturally occurs in nature with huge amount.
- Very few metals cannot undergo natural process like oxidation.
- A metal is a material in the form of an element, compound, or in the form of alloy and which is basically hard when it is in solid state.
- Metals are look like shiny and malleable.
- Metals are good conductors and shows electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity.
- Smelting is the process to separate metals from their ores, this process requires high temperatures
