6 Questions
Match the metal with its primary use:
Tin = Used in bike frames Aluminium = Solder (for electronics), plating surfaces such as steel cans Copper = Cutlery, kitchen and medical equipment Zinc = Plumbing supplies, electrical cables
Match the metal with its primary property:
Low Carbon Steel (Mild Steel) = Hard but brittle, resists deformation Cast Iron = Tough and ductile, rusts easily if not protected High Carbon Steel = Malleable and ductile, high corrosion resistance Stainless Steel = Hard, brittle, hard-wearing, resists abrasion
Match the metal with its primary use:
High Carbon Steel = Kitchen pans, machine bases, manhole covers Brass = Tools, blades, scissors Cast Iron = Musical instruments, plumbing fitments, ornate artefacts Stainless Steel = Cutting tools such as drill bits, mill cutters, taps, and dies
Match the metal with its primary property:
Copper = Lightweight, ductile, resists corrosion Aluminium = Ductile and malleable, good electrical conductor Tin = Brittle yet malleable, high corrosion resistance Zinc = Malleable and ductile, high corrosion resistance
Match the metal with its primary use:
High Speed Steel = Car bodies, steel building frames, pipelines Low Carbon Steel (Mild Steel) = Cutting tools such as drill bits, mill cutters, taps, and dies Stainless Steel = Bike frames, drink cans, takeaway trays Copper = Used to galvanise steel
Match the metal with its primary property:
Brass = Hard, ductile, rust-resistant, chromium layer protects steel from corrosion Stainless Steel = Malleable, easily cast, good corrosion resistance Aluminium = Tough and ductile, rusts easily if not protected Zinc = Hard, brittle, hard-wearing, resists abrasion
This quiz covers the properties and uses of various metals, including cast iron, low carbon steel, high carbon steel, and tin.
