Guest chendoh Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 The Terracotta Army are thousands of life-sized figures in fired clay of soldiers who were to guard China's Emperor Qiu Shihuangdi after his death in the 3rd century BC. Discovered by peasants digging a well in 1974, at Xian, it is often referred to as the Eigth Wonder of the World! :) Okay - more History than Science, but still cool, okay? Not when you consider the TC lasting for more than 2100 years, the potter must of had one heck of a formula. And If you look at them closely, they don't look like they were fired very hard. :naughty: ;) :evil: :cup: ;) :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug::boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: :boy_hug: are we going to have any horse icons?

Jay-qu Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 All the compounds of copper are poisonous!!!!:rolleyes::confused:Then would you consider it safe to have all your water running through copper pipes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qfwfq Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Not that lead, from which the word 'plumbing' derives, is much less toxic. Use of these pipes relies on a layer of insoluble oxide forming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayra Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Not that lead, from which the word 'plumbing' derives, is much less toxic. Use of these pipes relies on a layer of insoluble oxide forming. Would that oxide be considered a compound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qfwfq Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Would that oxide be considered a compound?Sure but the trick is that it stays put and forms a protective layer. Quirky enough? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayra Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Sure but the trick is that it stays put and forms a protective layer. Quirky enough? Which implies that not all compounds of copper are poisonous :confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
