Jul asked:


This helps somewhat. It’s for my chemistry class. We have to list 5 chemicals or chemical reactions that are used in different occupations. Mine is jewelry making. I will see if these work. They can’t just be elements such as gold, silver, copper, etc.

    I’m not sure what your question really is.

    In jewelry, I’ve used these metals: copper, nickel, sterling, and nu gold.

    I’ve used flux & anti-flux when soldering two pieces of jewelry together.

    Helpful? Ashley
