- Use: Often used in chemical reactions to produce hydrogen or as an electrode in electrolytic cells.
5. Steel (an alloy of iron)
- Properties: Steel is more resistant to corrosion than pure iron, thanks to the presence of carbon and sometimes other elements.
- Use: Steel can be used in experiments similar to iron, but it is less prone to rusting.
6. Magnesium (Mg)
- Properties: Magnesium is a highly reactive metal, often used in pyrotechnics due to its bright flame when ignited.
- Use: Magnesium is frequently used in electrochemical cells as a very reactive metal, often as a negative electrode.
