Iron in the body Iron in the form of ions is present in the organisms of all animals and, of course, humans. The main biological function of iron is participation in the transport of oxygen to all organs and oxidative processes. The human body weighing about 70 kg contains 4.2 g of iron, and 1 liter of blood contains 450 mg. With a lack of iron in the body, glandular anemia develops. The transfer of iron in the body is carried out by the most important protein - hemoglobin, which contains more than half of all iron in the body.

The main role of iron in the body is participation in the "birth" of red (erythrocytes) and white (lymphocytes) blood cells. Red blood cells contain hemoglobin, an oxygen carrier, and lymphocytes are responsible for immunity. Almost 60% of the iron entering the body is spent on the synthesis of hemoglobin. A certain amount (about 20%) is deposited in muscles, bone marrow, liver and spleen. Another 20% of it is used for the synthesis of various enzymes.

In case of anemia, it is recommended to use cast iron dishes for cooking. Experiments have shown that cooking and boiling the sauce for 20 minutes in such a dish increases the amount of iron by 9 times. People with low hemoglobin need to be outdoors more often. Be attentive to your health: having a sufficient amount of hemoglobin is our life !!! For anemia (a lack of hemoglobin), increase the amount of lean beef and liver, red caviar, and egg yolks in your diet.

Being in nature In the earth's crust, iron is widespread enough to account for about 4.1% of the mass of the earth's crust (4th place among all elements, 2nd among metals). A large number of iron-containing ores and minerals are known. Iron is found in the form of various compounds: oxides, sulfides, silicates. Iron is found in free form in meteorites; occasionally, native iron (ferrite) is found in the earth's crust as a product of magma solidification.




Of the ores and minerals of the greatest practical importance are magnetic iron ore (magnetite - Fe 3 O 4; magnetite contains 72.4% Fe), brown iron ore (limonite - limonite FeOOH; contains up to 65% Fe) red iron ore (hematite - Fe 2 O 3 ; contains up to 70% Fe) hematite


Physical properties of iron Iron is a relatively soft, malleable silver-gray metal Melting point C Boiling point C At temperatures below C, iron has ferromagnetic properties (it is easily magnetized)






Iron in the body Iron is present in the organisms of all plants and animals, but in small amounts (on average 0.02%). The main biological function of iron is participation in oxygen transport and oxidative processes. Iron performs this function in the composition of complex proteins - hemoproteins. The body of an average person (body weight 70 kg) contains 4.2 g of iron, in 1 liter of blood - 450 mg. With a lack of iron in the body, glandular anemia develops.






People first mastered iron in the fourth and third millennia BC. e., picking up iron meteorites that fell from the sky, and turning them into jewelry, tools of labor and hunting. They are still found among the inhabitants of Northern and South America, Greenland and the Middle East, as well as archaeological sites on all continents. Iron production history


Application of iron, its alloys and compounds Pure iron has a rather limited application. It is used in the manufacture of electromagnet cores, as a catalyst for chemical processes, for several other purposes. But iron alloys, cast iron and steel form the basis of modern technology. Many iron compounds are also widely used. So, iron (III) sulfate is used in water treatment, iron oxides and cyanide serve as pigments in the manufacture of dyes.


“Pure iron can quickly magnetize and demagnetize, so it is used to make cores, transfo-, membrane, electromagnets and microphone membranes. Most of all, iron alloys - cast iron and steel are used in practice "


I am very ancient metal, I lost count of the centuries. I was immodest, Thousands of years BC. And for the shine that shimmered with cold People there paid in gold!

I have been in the name of the century for a long time, In the human body. They call me a character Almost the entire tractor is made of me. It is very useful in an apple, And my name is ...
