Tt contains: 95% iron, 4% carbon and other impurities as sulphur, silicon and phosphorous. List some of its uses. Due to the properties of cast iron, it is of limited use, as in making castings for cookers, stoves and gas cylinders. Gry are alloys? loys: are solid solutions of two or more metals that may contain non-metals as well. ‘Why are they useful? ‘They combine the properties of their constituents, for eg., an alloy is harder than a pure metal. (ype happens in an L-D converter? ‘in the L-D converter,molten pig or cast iron is converted into steel. Is steel directly produced in an L-D converter? Yes ‘What should be done after that to obtain steel? Other metals are to be added such as Ni or Cr @y the elements present in stainless steel in the order of decrcasing ratio.

Watef and xyg (4?)yna is galvanizing and what is sacrificial protection? ‘Galvanizing is covering iron with a thin layer of zine by either dipping it in molten zinc or electroplating. Sacrificial protection is attaching a piece of metal (must be more reactive than Fe) to steel pipes, hulls of ships or oil rigs to protect them from rusting. How do these methods increase the resistance of iron corrosion? ‘The more reactive metal is oxidized instead of iron and loses electrons. ‘The more reactive metal reacts with oxygen and water in the air and sacrifices itself for iron and corrodes. 48, Writy4n equatie for the reagsisi of iron with ox¥gen to prodiice Fe:042 Fey Ong) > FeO) the vac sew Ah produgeF EO 50, Wrige“an equation for fA with oxygén and water to mop 7 4 Fei +3 O24) 0] os) Level M~ Topic 12 Metals SQ — (2010-2011) Page 8 of UI (wie an equation for the reaction of iron with HCI (aq.
