Because copper has a higher electrical and thermal conductivity than iron and is not susceptible to oxidation as easily.
Physical. chemical only applies when it undergoes a reaction
Hydrocarbons are molecules that contain only carbon and hydrogen. Due to carbon's unique bonding patterns, hydrocarbons can have single, double, or triple bonds between the carbon atoms. The names of hydrocarbons with single bonds end in "-ane," those with double bonds end in "-ene," and those with triple bonds end in "-yne". The bonding of hydrocarbons allows them to form rings or chains.
