Can valuable & invaluable metals be mixed? What will happen then?
Can gold (or any valuable metal) be mixed with iron (glass, mercury, zinc, or lead)? What will result in each case?
75% gold alloyed with 25% iron gives blue gold. You don't see it much, it is hard to work with.
Glass is not a metal.
Gold and mercury combine easily to make amalgam.
Gold is often alloyed with zinc and other metals to make white gold.
I'm not aware of gold/lead alloys, I'm not sure what the advantage would be. Shiny doorstops?
In a paper I am working on I show a density analysis of a 950 gram lead brick plated with 50 grams of gold. It might look like gold, but it's not as dense as gold, and it sticks out like a sore thumb.
