Received: 6 April 2018; Accepted: 23 July 2018; Published: 31 July 2018 Abstract: Native iron has been identified in an active thermogenic travertine deposit, located at Ilia area (Euboea Island, Greece). The deposit is forming around a hot spring, which is part of a large active metallogenetic hydrothermal system depositing ore-bearing travertines. The native iron occurs in two shapes: nodules with diameter 0.4 and 0.45 cm, and angular grains with length up to tens of µm. The travertine laminae around the spherical/ovoid nodules grow smoothly, and the angular grains are trapped inside the pores of the travertine. -

Stoichiometry: the Reaction of Iron with Copper(II) Sulfate
CEAC 103 GENERAL CHEMISTRY Experiment 2 Stoichiometry: The Reaction of Iron with Copper(II) Sulfate Purpose: To enhance the understanding of stoichiometry, a reaction between iron and copper (II) sulfate solution will be conducted. This will help you to differentiate limiting and excess reactant in a chemical reaction. Finally the theoretical and percent yield of this reaction will be calculated. Theory Stoichiometry is the measurement of quantitative relationships in chemical formulas and equations. In this experiment stoichiometric principles will be used to obtain the appropriate equation between the reaction of iron metal and copper(II) sulfate solution. After the reaction is taking place, the formation of metallic copper, which is seen precipitating as a finely divided reddish-orange powder will be observed. This reaction is one of the example of single substitution reaction in which one element “displaces” from a compound by another element. The element which has ability of displacing other element from compound is said to be “more active” than the displaced metal. In this experiment, iron is more active than copper. Two distinct forms of iron are present, namely Fe2+ and Fe3+. Stoichiometric principles will be used to determine which reaction is more dominant compared to other one by examining the reaction between iron and copper (II) sulfate solution. If Fe2+ is formed, then equation (1) is dominant, while equation (2) will be selected if Fe3+ is formed. This can be determined 1 according to mole ratio of copper to iron. If the moles of copper is equal to the moles of iron, then equation (1) has taken place. -

Iron –Carbon Phase Diagram
IRON –CARBON PHASE DIAGRAM CB.EN.P2MFG15018 Definition of structures: Various phases that appear on the Iron- Carbon equilibrium phase diagram are as under: • Austenite • Ferrite • Pearlite • Cementite • Martensite • Ledeburite Definition of structures: Austenite is an interstitial solid solution of Carbon dissolved in (F.C.C.) iron. Maximum solubility is 2.0 % C at 1130°C. High formability, most of heat treatments begin with this single phase. It is normally not stable at room temperature. But, under certain conditions it is possible to obtain austenite at room temperature. Austenite Average properties are: Tensile strength = 150,000 psi; Elongation = 10 percent in 2 in.; Hardness = Rockwell C 40, approx; and toughness = high Definition of structures: Ferrite is known as α solid solution. It is an interstitial solid solution of a small amount of carbon dissolved in α (BCC) iron. stable form of iron below 912 deg.C. The maximum solubility is 0.025 % C at 723C and it dissolves only 0.008 % C at room temperature. It is the softest structure that appears on the diagram. Ferrite Average properties are: Tensile strength = 40,000 psi; Elongation = 40 % in 2 in; Hardness > Rockwell C 0 or > Rockwell B 90 Definition of structures: Pearlite is the eutectoid mixture containing 0.80 % C and is formed at 723°C on very slow cooling. It is a very fine platelike or lamellar mixture of ferrite and cementite. The white ferritic background or matrix contains thin plates of cementite (dark). Pearlite Average properties are: Tensile strength = 120,000 psi; Elongation = 20 % in 2 in.; Hardness = Rockwell C20, BHN-300 Definition of structures: Cementite or iron carbide, is very hard, brittle intermetallic compound of iron & carbon, as Fe3C, contains 6.67 % C. -

Why We Need to Assure Adequacy of Zinc
Aunt Cathy’s Guide to Nutrition: Sanford Nutrition Therapy Dept. 1/15 Thinking about Clinical/Medical Nutrition Issues and Applications of RDAs, RDI, DRIs, ULS, AIs, etc.: Why We Need to Assure Adequacy of Zinc (from the series “How Am I Supposed to Remember All This Stuff?!”) Aunt Cathy Cathy Breedon PhD, RD, CSP, FADA, FAND Clinical and Metabolic Nutrition Specialist / Prenatal/Pediatric Nutrition Specialist Sanford Medical Center, and Clinical Associate Professor UND School of Medicine, Fargo, ND • Zinc is a necessary mineral cofactor needed for over 200 enzymes to work. • Not having enough screws stuff up a LOT. • What kinds of things won’t work well if zinc is inadequate? Read on … 1 Memory Tricks for ZINC Many people remember things best if they also see pictures, so here are some pictures identifying some specific places in the body for which zinc is absolutely essential. Other folks remember things best if they hear them … so if you are one of those people, be sure to read the descriptor for each function of zinc out loud. The Zinc Story: “Zinco” (Zorro’s more irritating cousin) has just marked the places where people need zinc for their bodies to operate. Just picture the fellow on the left to remember that zinc is needed all over the body. It is a co-factor for over 200 enzymes! In other words … I dare you to name a body part that is not dependent on adequacy of zinc! Here are some specific places where he marked things with a Z for Zinc: Zinc is need to make DNA So Zinc is needed And Zinc is needed to to make new cells for babies
