  2. Chemical coloring of metals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_coloring_of_metals

    Chemical coloring of metals is the process of changing the color of metal surfaces with different chemical solutions. The chemical coloring of metals can be split into three types: electroplating – coating the metal surface with another metal using electrolysis. patination – chemically reacting the metal surface to form a colored oxide or salt.

  3. Color of chemicals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_of_chemicals

    Color of chemicals. The color of chemicals is a physical property of chemicals that in most cases comes from the excitation of electrons due to an absorption of energy performed by the chemical. The study of chemical structure by means of energy absorption and release is generally referred to as spectroscopy.

  4. CPK coloring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPK_coloring

    CPK coloring. A plastic ball-and-stick model of proline. These models usually comply with CPK coloring. In chemistry, the CPK coloring (for Corey – Pauling – Koltun) is a popular color convention for distinguishing atoms of different chemical elements in molecular models.

  5. Iron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron

    Iron is a chemical element; it has the symbol Fe (from Latin ferrum 'iron') and atomic number 26. It is a metal that belongs to the first transition series and group 8 of the periodic table. It is, by mass, the most common element on Earth, forming much of Earth's outer and inner core.

  6. Properties of metals, metalloids and nonmetals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_metals...

    e. The chemical elements can be broadly divided into metals, metalloids, and nonmetals according to their shared physical and chemical properties. All elemental metals have a shiny appearance (at least when freshly polished); are good conductors of heat and electricity; form alloys with other metallic elements; and have at least one basic oxide.

  7. Vitriol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitriol

    Vitriol is the general chemical name encompassing a class of chemical compounds comprising sulfates of certain metals – originally, iron or copper. Those mineral substances were distinguished by their color, such as green vitriol for hydrated iron (II) sulfate and blue vitriol for hydrated copper (II) sulfate. [1]

  8. Electrochemical coloring of metals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochemical_coloring...

    Electrochemical coloring of metals is a process in which the surface color of metal is changed by electrochemical techniques, i.e. cathodic or anodic polarization. The first method of electrochemical coloring of metals are certainly Nobili's colored rings, discovered by Leopoldo Nobili , an Italian physicist in 1826.

  9. Glass coloring and color marking - Wikipedia

    Glass coloring and color marking may be obtained in several ways. by the addition of coloring ions, [1][2] by precipitation of nanometer-sized colloids (so-called striking glasses[1] such as "gold ruby" [3] or red "selenium ruby"), [2] Ancient Roman enamelled glass, 1st century, Begram Hoard. by colored inclusions (as in milk glass and smoked ...
