remains of sea animals that lived millions of years ago. Limestone is quarried
(dug out of the ground) and used as a building material. It is also used in the
chemical industry and for cosmetics. Cement: Made by heating limestone with
clay in a kiln. Mortar: Made by mixing cement and sand with water. Concrete:
Made by mixing crushed rocks or stones (called aggregate), cement and sand

C1.3.2 Alloys
Extracting Iron
Iron ore goes into
the blast furnace
and the iron is
removed from iron
oxide by carbon.
Reactions in which
oxygen is removed
are called reduction
reactions.
Iron from the blast
furnace contains
about 96% iron. The
impurities make it
brittle and so it has
limited uses.
IRON ALLOYS
Steel Iron with carbon
and/or other elements.
Impurities make it brittle.
There are a number of
types of steel alloys: Low
carbon steel easily shaped,
High carbon steels very hard,
Stainless steels resistant to
corrosion

Copper has properties that make it useful for electrical wiring and
plumbing. Not very reactive, excellent conductor of electricity, easily
bent into shape for water pipes in plumbing.
