Interesting facts about Copper
- It is soft, malleable, and ductile.
- It has high electricalconductivity (59.6×106 S/m).
- It has the second-highest thermal conductivity (only after silver) among pure metals at room temperature.
- It’s Oligodynamic, which means it naturally kills germs on contact.
- The adult body contains between 1.4 and 2.1 mg of copper per kilogram of body weight.
- Along with gold, it is the only non-greyish pure metal.
- It takes on its own unique hue (patina) over time and can be “reset” to brilliancy with baking soda and water (or salt and vinegar).
