Nails are made up of iron not of phosphorus and barium.  

As both phosphorous and barium are relatively weaker than iron ,phosphorus breaks easily and barium is also fairly weak. Iron nails are already also not that strong, but their weight and strength are sufficient.  

So the nails are made up of iron.

<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2><h2>----------------------------------------------------------------------</h2><h2>ELECTROPLATING </h2>

Electroplating the plating one metal on to the another metal, It is mostly used for preventing corrosion by using copper or chromium or decorate the object by using gold or silver plating.

__________________________________________________________

<h3>Principle:</h3>

When electricity is passed the thin layer of metal is deposited on another metal and water molecule given out as a By-Product, Thus this process works on the principle of Hydrolysis.

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>QUESTION:</h2>

A) Electrolysis

B) Chromium prevents corrosion and gives the fine shining touch to the objects.

C) The metal which is deposited to the object i.e. spoon will be connected to the positive electrode of a battery, Thus it is anode. The spoon at which electroplating is need to be done is connected to the negative electrode, thus the Spoon is cathode.

If a reaction ends with 5.5 grams of products, how many grams of reactants were required to start the reaction?

5.5 grams of reactants. According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, mass isn’t created or lost through any chemical changes, so the total mass should remain constant from the initial reactants to the final products.
