  2. Thermite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermite

    Oxygen-balanced iron thermite 2Al + Fe 2 O 3 has theoretical maximum density of 4.175 g/cm 3 an adiabatic burn temperature of 3135 K or 2862 °C or 5183 °F (with phase transitions included, limited by iron, which boils at 3135 K), the aluminum oxide is (briefly) molten and the produced iron is mostly liquid with part of it being in gaseous ...

  3. Salt (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(chemistry)

    Above their melting point, salts melt and become molten salts (although some salts such as aluminium chloride and iron(III) chloride show molecule-like structures in the liquid phase). [63] Inorganic compounds with simple ions typically have small ions, and thus have high melting points, so are solids at room temperature.

  4. Iron(III) chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron(III)_chloride

    Iron(III) complexes, with a high spin d 5 configuration, is kinetically labile, which means that ligands rapidly dissociate and reassociate. A further complication is that these solutions are strongly acidic, as expected for aquo complexes of a tricationic metal. Iron aquo complexes are prone to olation, the formation of polymeric oxo derivatives.

  5. Ferrofluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrofluid

    Ferrofluid is a liquid that is attracted to the poles of a magnet. It is a colloidal liquid made of nanoscale ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic particles suspended in a carrier fluid (usually an organic solvent or water). [1] Each magnetic particle is thoroughly coated with a surfactant to inhibit clumping. Large ferromagnetic particles can be ...

  6. Ferric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferric

    Rust is a mixture of iron(III) oxide and oxide-hydroxide that usually forms when iron metal is exposed to humid air. Unlike the passivating oxide layers that are formed by other metals, like chromium and aluminum, rust flakes off, because it is bulkier than the metal that formed it. Therefore, unprotected iron objects will in time be completely ...

  7. Molten salt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molten_salt

    Molten salt is salt which is solid at standard temperature and pressure but liquified due to elevated temperature. A salt that is liquid even at standard temperature and pressure is usually called a room-temperature ionic liquid , and molten salts are technically a class of ionic liquids.

  8. Chemical substance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_substance

    Typically these have a metal, such as a copper ion, in the center and a nonmetals atom, such as the nitrogen in an ammonia molecule or oxygen in water in a water molecule, forms a dative bond to the metal center, e.g. tetraamminecopper(II) sulfate [Cu(NH 3) 4]SO 4 ·H 2 O. The metal is known as a "metal center" and the substance that ...

  9. Liquid Metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_Metal

    Liquid Metal may refer to: A liquid metal, which has a relatively low melting point, such as mercury, tin or lead; Any metal in a liquid state; Mercury, the only metal to be liquid at room temperature; Liquid metallic hydrogen; Liquidmetal, a type of metallic glass; Liquid Metal (Sirius XM), a radio channel
