Solution

The correct option is B

Tensile strength to the alloy


The explanation for correct option:

Option (B) Tensile strength to the alloy

  • Modern stainless steel may contain Nickel (Ni), Niobium (Nb), Molybdenum (Mb), and Titanium (Ti) in addition to Iron (Fe), Carbon (C), and Chromium (Cr).
  • Nickel, Niobium, Molybdenum, and Chromium increase stainless steel corrosion resistance.
  • As a result, stainless steel, in addition to Iron, Nickel, and Chromium, gives the alloy tensile strength.

Hence, Stainless steel contains in addition to Iron, Nickel, and Chromium which imparts option (B) tensile strength to the alloy.
