Answer 1

Answer:

$☆COPPER$

• Most copper is used in electrical equipment such as wiring and motors. This is because it conducts both heat and electricity very well, and can be drawn into wires. It also has uses in construction (for example roofing and plumbing), and industrial machinery (such as heat exchangers).

• The primary applications of copper are in electrical wiring, roofing, plumbing, and industrial machinery. For most of these applications, copper is used in its pure form. However, it can be alloyed with other metals when increased levels of hardness are required.

Explanation:

☆What is copper used for in homes?

☆Perhaps the most common home use of copper people have come to know is its use in both electrical wiring and in copper pipes used for the plumbing in most homes and businesses. Copper is highly conductive of both electrical and thermal energy.

☆What is special about copper?

☆Copper has many desirable properties, characteristic of transition metals. It is soft, malleable, ductile, and an excellent conductor of heat and electricity, and it resists corrosion. Copper does eventually oxidize to form copper oxide, or verdigris, which is a green color.

How is copper useful to humans?

☆Copper is an essential nutrient for the body. Together with iron, it enables the body to form red blood cells. It helps maintain healthy bones, blood vessels, nerves, and immune function, and it contributes to iron absorption. Sufficient copper in the diet may help prevent cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis, too.
