  Iron
     Tubal-Cain is the first-mentioned worker in iron (Gen. 4:22).
     The Egyptians wrought it at Sinai before the Exodus. David
     prepared it in great abundance for the temple (1 Chr. 22:3:
     29:7). The merchants of Dan and Javan brought it to the market
     of Tyre (Ezek. 27:19). Various instruments are mentioned as made
     of iron (Deut. 27:5; 19:5; Josh. 17:16, 18; 1 Sam. 17:7; 2 Sam.
     12:31; 2 Kings 6:5, 6; 1 Chr. 22:3; Isa. 10:34).
     
       Figuratively, a yoke of iron (Deut. 28:48) denotes hard
     service; a rod of iron (Ps. 2:9), a stern government; a pillar
     of iron (Jer. 1:18), a strong support; a furnace of iron (Deut.
     4:20), severe labour; a bar of iron (Job 40:18), strength;

     (Isa. 60:17), prosperity.
     

  iron
  Symbol: Fe
  Atomic number: 26
  Atomic weight: 55.847
  Silvery malleable and ductile metallic transition element. Has nine
  isotopes and is the fourth most abundant element in the earth's crust.
  Required by living organisms as a trace element (used in hemoglobin in
  humans.) Quite reactive, oxidizes in moist air, displaces hydrogen from
  dilute acids and combines with nonmetallic elements.

  Iron \I"ron\ ([imac]"[u^]rn), n. [OE. iren, AS. [=i]ren,
     [=i]sen, [=i]sern; akin to D. ijzer, OS. [=i]sarn, OHG.
     [=i]sarn, [=i]san, G. eisen, Icel. [=i]sarn, j[=a]rn, Sw. &
     Dan. jern, and perh. to E. ice; cf. Ir. iarann, W. haiarn,
     Armor. houarn.]
     [1913 Webster]
     1. (Chem.) The most common and most useful metallic element,
        being of almost universal occurrence, usually in the form
        of an oxide (as hematite, magnetite, etc.), or a hydrous
        oxide (as limonite, turgite, etc.). It is reduced on an
        enormous scale in three principal forms; viz., cast
        iron, steel, and wrought iron. Iron usually appears
        dark brown, from oxidation or impurity, but when pure, or
        on a fresh surface, is a gray or white metal. It is easily
        oxidized (rusted) by moisture, and is attacked by many
        corrosive agents. Symbol Fe (Latin Ferrum). Atomic number
        26, atomic weight 55.847. Specific gravity, pure iron,
        7.86; cast iron, 7.1. In magnetic properties, it is
        superior to all other substances.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     Note: The value of iron is largely due to the facility with
           which it can be worked. Thus, when heated it is
           malleable and ductile, and can be easily welded and
           forged at a high temperature. As cast iron, it is
           easily fusible; as steel, is very tough, and (when
           tempered) very hard and elastic. Chemically, iron is
           grouped with cobalt and nickel. Steel is a variety of
           iron containing more carbon than wrought iron, but less
           that cast iron. It is made either from wrought iron, by
           roasting in a packing of carbon (cementation) or from
           cast iron, by burning off the impurities in a Bessemer
           converter (then called Bessemer steel), or directly
           from the iron ore (as in the Siemens rotatory and
           generating furnace).
           [1913 Webster]
  
     2. An instrument or utensil made of iron; -- chiefly in
        composition; as, a flatiron, a smoothing iron, etc.
        [1913 Webster]
  
              My young soldier, put up your iron.   --Shak.

     4. Strength; power; firmness; inflexibility; as, to rule with

     Cast iron (Metal.), an impure variety of iron, containing
        from three to six percent of carbon, part of which is
        united with a part of the iron, as a carbide, and the rest
        is uncombined, as graphite. It there is little free
        carbon, the product is white iron; if much of the carbon
        has separated as graphite, it is called gray iron. See
        also Cast iron, in the Vocabulary.

     Wrought iron (Metal.), the purest form of iron commonly
        known in the arts, containing only about half of one per
        cent of carbon. It is made either directly from the ore,
        as in the Catalan forge or bloomery, or by purifying
        (puddling) cast iron in a reverberatory furnace or
        refinery. It is tough, malleable, and ductile. When formed
        into bars, it is called bar iron.
