Below are possible answer for general crossword clue: metallic substance symbol fe. We have 9 answers for metallic substance symbol fe in our database.
- A rare element of the carbon-silicon group, intermediate
between the metals and nonmetals, obtained from the mineral zircon as a
dark sooty powder, or as a gray metallic crystalline substance. Symbol
Zr. Atomic weight, 90.4.
- Metal, Ti - Metallic element - An elementary substance found combined in the minerals
manaccanite, rutile, sphene, etc., and isolated as an infusible
iron-gray amorphous powder, having a metallic luster. It burns when
heated in the air. Symbol Ti. Atomic weight 48.1.
- A rare nonmetallic element, analogous to sulphur and
selenium, occasionally found native as a substance of a silver-white
metallic luster, but usually combined with metals, as with gold and
silver in the mineral sylvanite, with mercury in Coloradoite, etc.
Symbol Te. Atomic weight 125.2.
- A rare metallic element, of the same group as platinum,
which it much resembles, being silver-white, but harder, and brittle,
and indifferent to most corrosive agents. With the exception of osmium,
it is the heaviest substance known, its specific gravity being 22.4.
Symbol Ir. Atomic weight 192.5.
- Metallic element - A rare metallic element of the platinum group, found native
as an alloy in platinum ore, and in iridosmine. It is a hard,
infusible, bluish or grayish white metal, and the heaviest substance
known. Its tetroxide is used in histological experiments to stain
tissues. Symbol Os. Atomic weight 191.1. Specific gravity 22.477.
- A nonmetallic element of the sulphur group, and analogous
to sulphur in its compounds. It is found in small quantities with
sulphur and some sulphur ores, and obtained in the free state as a dark
reddish powder or crystalline mass, or as a dark metallic-looking
substance. It exhibits under the action of light a remarkable variation
in electric conductivity, and is used in certain electric apparatus.
Symbol Se. Atomic weight 78.9.
- Chemical element - Element that makes up diamonds - Element with symbol C - Non metallic element - Non-metallic element - Nonmetallic element - An elementary substance, not metallic in its nature, which
is present in all organic compounds. Atomic weight 11.97. Symbol C. it
is combustible, and forms the base of lampblack and charcoal, and
enters largely into mineral coals. In its pure crystallized state it
constitutes the diamond, the hardest of known substances, occuring in
monometric crystals like the octahedron, etc. Another modification is
graphite, or blacklead, and in this it is soft, and occurs in hexagonal
prisms or tables. When united with oxygen it forms carbon dioxide,
commonly called carbonic acid, or carbonic oxide, according to the
proportions of the oxygen; when united with hydrogen, it forms various
compounds called hydrocarbons. Compare Diamond, and Graphite.
