METALS

METALS

1. MAIN PROPERTIES OF METALS

   • TENACITY
   • DUCTILITY
   • MELLEABILITY
   • HARDNESS
   • DENSITY
   • ELECTRICAL CONDUCTORS
   • METALLIC SHINE
   • MOSTLY SOLID AT ROOM TEMPERATURE

2. CLASSIFICATION OF METALS

   • ACCORDING TO THEIR COMPOSITION
     • FERROUS
       • IRON OR ALLOYS THAT CONTAINS IRON
     • NON FERROUS
       • PURE METALS THAT ARENT IRON
   • ACCORDING TO THEIR DENSITY
     • ULTRALIGHT
     • LIGHT
     • HEAVY

3. THE PROCESS OF OBTAINING METALS

   • 1.OBTAINING METALS FROM MINES
   • 2.SEPARATION OF THJE MINERAL INTO ORE AND GANGUE
   • 3.OBTAINING THE PURE METAL FROM THE MINERAL
   • 4.THEY BETTER THE PROPERTIES AND THE PHYSICAL FORM OF THE METALS

4. MINING

   • INDUSTRIAL ACTIVITY THAT CONSIST IN EXTRACTING MINERALS FROM THE EARTH
     • WHEN WE HAVE THE MINERAL THE NEXT THING THAT WE SHOULD DO IS TO OBTAIN THE PURE METAL

5. SIDERURGY

   • TERM USED FOR THE INDUSTRY TO OBTAINING IRON
   • SIDERURGIC PROCESSES

6. FERROUS PRODUCTS

   • ARE THE PRODUCTS OBTAINED BROM A BLAST FURNACE
   • FERROUS

7. ELECTROLYSIS

   • ITS A PROCESS USED TO OBTAIN FERROUS METALS
