Top Five Hardest Metals
Diorite
Its a
collection of minerals found in nature, and be an integral part in the
composition of Earth's crust. Based on this rock characteristic divided by the
last rock and make it a standalone unit. The rock is the basic unit of
construction land, while the metal is the same rock unit. Rocks differ from
each other in terms of the types of its constituent minerals and the
relationship of these metals together in a single rock.
Coal
Coal rock black or brown flammable and
combustion. When burning coal, it gives energy in the form of heat. Can be used
in the heat released by burning coal to heat homes, fuel for locomotives at the
beginning of invention of the steam engine. The primary use today, this energy
is in the production of electricity. And give power plants burning coal, two
thirds of electricity consumed in the world. And use of coal as well as in the
production of coke, a raw material in the manufacture of basic iron and steel.
And produces other materials for the production of coke, can be used in the
manufacture of medicines, dyes and fertilizers.
Dolomite
Dolomite mineral used as a source of
magnesium extracted from the earth's crust. Which is the average hardness and
brittle, and is composed of calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate. The
chemical formula of Doulmit CaMg
(CO3) 2. And swings dolomite pure color between the white and yellow, has
changed impurities, such as iron and manganese, it relegates it to the color
crimson or brown, or to any other color. In most cases, similar to dolomite
with calcite (calcium carbonate amorphous), made up of calcium carbonate only.
And chemical tests used to distinguish between them. On the other hand, the
term refers to the type of dolomite rock is composed mainly of dolomite. And
may have formed some of the dolomite rocks of hardened sediment, silt, and
minerals, at the bottom of the ocean
Flint
Granites
formed as a result of a chemical process is the deposition of minerals (Silica)
dissolved in saturated aqueous solutions, which may reach the point of over
saturation as a result of water loss, thus Vtaatersb
decadence that most metals in water and then followed by at least decay, about
a grain of sand or fork aquatic
Quartz
Quartz or quartz (German: Quartz)
is a metal back his discovery to the
French (Pierre Curie) and his brother (Jack), who were studying a sample of
Waller ml in 1880, where they noticed a strange phenomenon, which is that when
exposing the quartz (silicon dioxide) to an effort to it generates an electric
current, and vice versa In the case of quartz crystal exposed to an electric
field, they oscillate and vibrate a specific frequency, also found that the
vibration and oscillation is characterized by regular and high resolution. This
phenomenon, known Balbizokahrbaiip,
enabled researchers to manufacture a lot of sensitive equipment, the most
important of watches designed to measure time with high accuracy, where the
share of quartz watches in the industry more than 85% of the global watch
market. The first model is due for an hour made of quartz to 1967 were produced
this time by researchers at the Center for e-Noeshetl
watches in Switzerland, in 1969, has been the industry's first quartz clock in
Japan by the Japanese under the name of Seiko Astron.
