Ferroaluminum (FeAl) is a ferroalloy, consisting of iron and aluminium.The metal usually consists of 40% to 60% aluminium. Applications of ferroaluminum include the deoxidation of steel, [1] hardfacing applications, reducing agent, thermite reactions, AlNiCo magnets, and alloying additions to welding wires and fluxes.

Crystal structure of Ice XI viewed along the c-axis Crystal structure of ice XI (c-axis in the vertical direction) Ice XI is the hydrogen-ordered form of the ordinary form of ice. The total internal energy of ice XI is about one sixth lower than ice I h, so in principle it should naturally form when ice I h is cooled to below 72 K.
In 1935, Linus Pauling used the ice rules to calculate the residual entropy (zero temperature entropy) of ice I h. [3] For this (and other) reasons the rules are sometimes mis-attributed and referred to as "Pauling's ice rules" (not to be confused with Pauling's rules for ionic crystals). A nice figure of the resulting structure can be found in ...
However, many of the physical properties of water and ice are controlled by the formation of hydrogen bonds between adjacent oxygen and hydrogen atoms; while it is a weak bond, it is nonetheless critical in controlling the structure of both water and ice. [6]
Structure of an octahedral metal aquo complex. Chromium(II) ion in aqueous solution. Most aquo complexes are mono-nuclear, with the general formula [M(H 2 O) 6] n+, with n = 2 or 3; they have an octahedral structure. The water molecules function as Lewis bases, donating a pair of electrons to the metal ion and forming a dative covalent bond ...
Once a water droplet has frozen as an ice nucleus, it grows in a supersaturated environment—wherein liquid moisture coexists with ice beyond its equilibrium point at temperatures below freezing. The droplet then grows by deposition of water molecules in the air (vapor) onto the ice crystal surface where they are collected.
n represents the number of water molecules in the hydrate and may be comprised between 13 and 19. [1] AFm form inter alia when tricalcium aluminate 3CaO·Al 2 O 3, or C 3 A in CCN, reacts with dissolved calcium sulfate (CaSO 4), or calcium carbonate (CaCO 3). As the sulfate form is the dominant one in AFm phases in the hardened cement paste ...
Detailed water models predict the occurrence of water clusters, as configurations of water molecules whose total energy is a local minimum. [6] [7] [8] Of particular interest are the cyclic clusters (H 2 O) n; these have been predicted to exist for n = 3 to 60. [9] [10] [11] At low temperatures, nearly 50% of water molecules are included in ...
