That metal, if it is a pure elemental metal. Each element that makes up the alloy, if it is a metal alloy.
Iron is not an alloy - it's a metal element. An alloy is a mixture of two or more elements.
An alloy?
Siver Halides are neither a metal or an alloy. They are a salt.
The term "base metal" or "parent metal" in an alloy refers to the primary metal that forms the majority of the alloy's composition. It serves as the foundation of the alloy, with other elements added to enhance its properties. The base metal determines the alloy's primary characteristics and properties.
copper is NOT an alloy, it is an elemental metal
Alloying of a metal is when you mix one metal with another thus forming an alloy.
A metal solution for an alloy could be a complete or partial solid solution.
pure metal
An alloy is a compound metal
The metal used as an alloy in ballpoint pens is bismuth. Its strong odor results from the highly toxic bismuth oxide, which forms when bismuth is exposed to air. Bismuth is almost twice as dense as lead, making it a suitable material for use in pens.
Tungsten is used as an alloy in ballpoint pens that is nearly twice as dense as lead. The strong odor associated with tungsten is a result of its highly toxic oxide, tungsten oxide.
