  2. Pyrotechnic composition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrotechnic_composition

    A pyrotechnic composition is a substance or mixture of substances designed to produce an effect by heat, light, sound, gas/smoke or a combination of these, as a result of non-detonative self-sustaining exothermic chemical reactions. Pyrotechnic substances do not rely on oxygen from external sources to sustain the reaction.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halite

    Larger pieces can be ground in a salt mill or dusted over food from a shaker as finishing salt. Halite is also often used both residentially and municipally for managing ice. Because brine (a solution of water and salt) has a lower freezing point than pure water, putting salt or saltwater on ice that is below 0 °C (32 °F) will cause it to ...

    [7] [8] [6] Sodium is a common component or contaminant in many samples, [2] and its spectrum tends to dominate many flame tests others. [5] The test flame is often viewed through cobalt blue glass to filter out the yellow of sodium and allow for easier viewing of other metal ions.

    First, the salt can be forced by physically applying a voltage to the salt with an inert electrode. The second, more common way, is to perform a chemical reaction in the salt which occurs at the desired voltage. For example, redox potential can be altered by sparging hydrogen and hydrogen fluoride into the salt or by dipping a metal into the salt.

    MgO + C + Cl 2 → MgCl 2 + CO. Electrolysis of the resulting molten magnesium chloride is conducted at 700 °C (1,292 °F): [6] MgCl 2 → Mg + Cl 2. Aluminium metal is produced from aluminium oxides by electrolysis of a molten mixture of sodium hexafluoroaluminate and alumina at 950 °C (1,740 °F). This conversion is called the Hall-Haroult ...

  9. Salt tectonics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_tectonics

    When initially deposited, sediments generally have a lower density of 2000 kg/m 3, but with loading and compaction their density increases to 2500 kg/m 3, which is greater than that of salt. [3] Once the overlying layers have become denser, the weak salt layer will tend to deform into a characteristic series of ridges and depressions, due to a ...
