What is it called when both aluminum and copper can be used for making wire?
an alloy
What element is mixed with steel?
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.
What do they call an alloy of gold and nickel?
An alloy of gold and nickel is typically called white gold. It is a popular alternative to yellow gold in jewelry making due to its silvery color.
What can spanners be made of?
Spanenrs are typically made from chromium-vanadium alloy tool steels and are often drop-forged.They are frequently chrome-plated to resist corrosion and for ease of cleaning.
What do you get when you mix silver and tin?
When you mix silver and tin, you get an alloy called silver solder. This alloy has a lower melting point than silver or tin alone, making it useful for joining metals together. Silver solder is commonly used in jewelry making and in plumbing applications.
