Iron is considerd to be an alloy steel. This is because an alloy steel is when carbon is the primary alloying element. However, wire of iron is considerd to be a non alloy.
Almost any metal might be included in a steel alloy. The simplest alloy that is called steel is an alloy of just iron and carbon. But it is the ratio that is important (e.g. cast iron is also an alloy of just iron and carbon, but it has too much carbon making it too brittle to be steel). There are also a few nonmetals (e.g. boron, silicon) that might be included in a steel alloy.
mixture
Alloys are metals that consist of more than one element. Example: Steel ... its iron with some carbon added.
hahahahahahahahaha.....if you dont know visit some other website.hahahaha
neither, steel is an alloy.

No, steel is not an element. It is actually considered an alloy, and the elements iron and carbon are the basic ingredients for making steel. Certainly other elements can be added for different reasons, like chromium for the production of stainless steel. But it is iron and carbon that make steel.
Steel is an example of an alloy. To be exact an interstitial alloy which means that a much smaller element is inserted into the larger element to make an alloy which has heightened characteristics. Steel is comprised of iron and carbon. It's very strong, corrodes in harsh sunlight and rain.
It is neither an element not a compound. Steel is an alloy. An alloy is a mixture of a metal and another element. In the case of steel, it is principally iron (an element), with about 0.2% to 2,0% carbon ( an element), mixed in. Other elements can be mixed in , e.g. chromium to form Stainless Steel, or Tungsten to form hard wearing steel.
No, steel is an alloy of metals as opposed to an element. Elements can be metalloids, but compounds cannot.
Steel is a alloy of iron.it mostly constitutes of carbon
it is a heterogeneous
It is the 24th element. The confusion arises because it is the key alloying element added to steel to make it stainless.

Alloy steel. Non-alloy steel. Different elements of steels used in these elements affect the mechanical properties of steel. The most important element. Carbon. Copper. Titanium. Cream. Molybdenum.
Iron is the element that, when combined with carbon, makes steel. Carbon content in steel can range from 0.2% to 2.1%, influencing the properties of the resulting steel alloy.
