Question:

i need an example of something conductive,malleable, and viscus?

i need an example of something conductive, something malleable, and something viscus

Answer:

are u sanding the pipe before u try to solder itu have to sand the outside of the pipe for the solder to hang on it just like sanding a car before u paint it.also u have to use a flux to help the solder run around ur fittingsand then flux then soldermake sure all the water is OUT of the lineif u can get a shop vac and suck it outor try opening a faucet somewhere near that area to drain the pipe downalso u will need to clean the inside of the fittingthats called a cleaning brush and u can get it at any lowes or home depot.just get the one for ur size pipe1/2.after sanding the pipe cleaning the fitting and fluxing the pipe and fitting the solder joint should take with no problem as long as they is no water where u r trying to solder atgood luck
You have to make sure the pipe is VERY clean, and the insides of the fittings too, before you assemble the pipe. Use a little bit of soldering flux on the connectors before you slide them on the pipe. The slightest bit of grease (or fingerprints) on the pipes will prevent the solder from adhering (this is a chemical reaction), and this might be the source of your problem. Either use steel wool or special wire brushes made for the purpose.
Copper is electrically conductive Gold is malleable(Can be made into thin sheet) Oil is more viscus than water
you need to re seal your pipe, one possible reason is you ,didn't heat your pipe up en ought,or second reason , is you didn't use , en ought flux, , re cut it , re join it , make sure it sucks the flux,inside, then re solider the outside around the pipe. , one more thing ,make sure you have a clamp to hold the pipe to the wall, as it mite just be moving on you ,
