Distillation involves heating the mixture to boil off one of the parts and then condensing the vapour. . A mixture of iron filings and sulfur powder can be separated using a magnet.

Wrought iron consists primarily of iron with 1 to 2% of added slag, which is the byproduct of iron ore smelting, and is a mix of silicon, sulfur, phosphorous, and aluminum oxides.

Pure iron begins to solidify below 2,800 degrees Fahrenheit, but the right iron-sulfur mix can remain liquid at temperatures as low as 1,810 degrees Fahrenheit.

Research on Atm1 protein’s role in iron-sulfur cluster transport across membranes could improve our understanding of mitochondrial conditions. A ubiquitous protein family found in almost all ...

As it happens naturally at the seafloor, iron and sulfur geochemical reactions took place at high temperatures, forming iron sulfide minerals such as mackinawite (FeS) and greigite (Fe 3 S 4) in a ...

As the molten, iron-sulfur mixture in the outer core slowly cools, iron atoms condense into cubic "flakes" that fall toward the planet's center, Chen said.

The very first cells obtained their energy from geochemical reactions. LMU researchers have now managed to recreate this ancient metabolic process in their laboratory.

Chandrayaan-3's measurements of sulfur in soils are the first to occur on the Moon. The exact amount of sulfur cannot be determined until the data calibration is completed.

New research has revealed how mitochondria assemble and move iron-containing molecules around the body, with the help of the antioxidant glutathione.

As the molten, iron-sulfur mixture in the outer core slowly cools, iron atoms condense into cubic “flakes” that fall toward the planet’s center, Chen said.
