The statue of liberty is made from copper sheets on the outside and come and zinc support beams on the inside. If she is made of copper Which is penny-colored why is the lady Liberty green today? Be specific please.
She was patinaed when assembled to form thin coat of oxide and when first erected was a very light green, almost white in some old postcard color images, which darkened with time. If she was to be copper colored, she would have to be polished, and waxed every year or coated with more recent protective finishes or done in bronze - she was never intended to look like a new penny.
Well those alarms couldn't be loud enough if you don't mine me saying. After all, these are cars and properties that are being protected.
the worst. i sleep days and work nights so i have a really hard time of it. Detroit is to blame making their alarms so noisy just to activate. why not use flashing lights . why does it have to be a horn that goes of whenever you set it?
lady liberty is green due to oxidation
Copper reacts with oxygen to form a greenish color.
