Soldering is a process used to join metals together by melting solder using a hot iron heated above 600 degrees Fahrenheit. Solder is a metal alloy, typically tin and lead, that forms a strong electrical bond between components as it cools. The document provides exercises for students to learn basic soldering terms and concepts. Students are asked to define soldering terms, explain the importance of soldering in electronics and factors that affect quality. They are also asked to provide techniques for reliable soldering. Videos linked in the document provide visual instructions to accompany the written material.

SOLDERING YOU MAY ANSWER THIS VIA A GOOGLE FORM TO BE POSTED IN THE GOOGLE CLASSROOM. BASIC INFORMATION ABOUT SOLDERING Soldering is a joining process used to join different types of metals together by melting solder. Solder is a metal alloy usually made of tin and lead which is melted using a hot iron. The iron is heated to temperatures above 600 degrees Fahrenheit which then cools to create a strong electrical bond. To answer the given exercises, watch two videos saved in your google classroom or directly access the videos at
Activity 1. Soldering Terms Direction: Write the correct term/s described in each item. 1. The process of connecting two metal pieces together to form a reliable electrical path 2-3. Two reason why soldering is important is Electronics
4-5. The two metal components of solder
6. The melting point of a 50/50 solder
7. Tin/lead ratio which has the lowest melting temperature 8. The name for the 63/37 solder 9. The most common solder used in Electronics 10. The solvent action between a solder and the copper where their molecular components combined with the solder 11. This prevents wetting action between the solder and the copper 12. This is used to remove oxide film on the surface of the material/component to be soldered 13-15. Three main elements of a soldering iron
