Question

Name the alloy whose constituents are iron, nickel, and chromium.

Answer 1

1. All the metals have different properties such as malleability, ductility, hardness, strength, appearance, etc. These properties can be improved by mixing one metal and one or more metal or non-metal elements. This mixture of one metal and one or more metal or non-metal elements is called an alloy.
2. The alloy whose constituents are iron, nickel, and chromium is stainless steel. Stainless steel is strong and hard, and it is anti-corrosive. Iron is present in the maximum amount, followed by chromium and nickel.
