Zinc is a bluish-white, moderately hard metal. It is brittle at room temperature and at temperatures above 150Â°C, being workable only in the range between 100Â°C and 150Â°C.It is an active metal and will displace hydrogen even from dilute acids.The principal use of zinc is for the galvanizing of iron sheets or wires.inc is a bluish-white, moderately hard metal.

Cooler stars emit much of their light in the red part of the spectrum, so you see them as red. Somewhat hotter stars, like our Sun, emit much of their light in the green (or yellow), with smaller amounts of red and blue. This balance of colors your eye sees as white.
Â· just now. Report Abuse. Planets do in fact give off electromagnetic radiation, but their temperatures are not hot enought to give off virtually any visible light. Earth gives off radiation in the infrared, which is a longer wavelength than visible light. Planets are visible because light from the sun is reflected off the planets surface and back to Earth, making it look like the planet is giving off it's own light. sgp19 Â· 9 years ago.
