How to use «Iron» in context?
Iron is one of the most common elements on Earth. It makes up about 12% of the Earth’s crust. However, almost all of the iron on Earth is found in the Earth’s surface. Only about 2% of the Earth’s iron is in the ground. Iron is a metal with a relatively low melting point, so it is often found in rocks such as iron ore. Iron can also be found in the Earth’s core. Iron is a vital element in many technologies, including cars, planes, and weapons.

Fe
Элемент VIII группы Периодич. системы; ат. н. 26, ат. м. 55,847; блестящий серебристо-белый металл. Состоит из четырех стабильных изотопов: Ре (5,84 %), 56Fe (91,68 %),»Fe (2,17 %) и 58Fe (0,31 %). Ж. было известно еще в доисторич. времена. Способ получения ж. из руд был изобретен в зап. части Азии во II тысячелетии до н. э.; вслед за тем применение ж. распростран. в Вавилоне, Египте, Греции; на смену бронз. в. пришел железный в. По содержанию в литосфере (4,65 мас. %) ж. занимает 2-е место среди металлов (на 1-м алюминий) и образует ок. 300 минералов (оксиды, сульфиды, силикаты, карбонаты и т.д.).
Ж. может существовать в виде трех аллотропич. модификаций: a-Fe с ОЦК, y-Fe с ГЦК и 8-Fe с ОЦК кристаллич. решетками; a-Fe ферромагнитно вплоть до 769 оС (точка Кюри). Модификации y~Fe и б-Fe парамагнитны. Полиморфные превращения ж. и стали при нагревании и охлаждении открыл в 1868 г. Д. К. Чернов. Fe проявляет перем. валентность (наиб. устойчивы соединения 2- и 3-валентного ж.). С кислородом ж. образует оксиды FeO, Fe2O3 и Fe3O4. Плотность ж. (при содержании примесей < 0,01 мас %) 7,874 г/ /см3, tт=1539 oС, /КИЛ*3200«С.
Ж. — важнейший металл соврем, техники. В чистом виде из-за низкой прочн. практич. не использ. Осн. масса ж. применяется в виде весьма разных по составу и св-вам сплавов. На долю сплавов ж. приходится ~ 95 % всей металлич. продукции.
Чистое Fe получают в относит. небольших кол-вах электролизом водных р-ров его солей или восстановлением водородом. Достат. чистое ж. получают прямым восстановл. непосредст. из рудных концентратов (минуя домен. печь), водородом, природ. газом или углем при относит. низких темп-pax (губчатое Fe, железный порошок, металлизов. окатыши).
