A. Metals are usually lustrous, malleable, and tough. Metals are also excellent electrical conductors.
B. Alloys are metal-to-metal or metal-to-non-metal alloys. The material gains more desired qualities as a result of this procedure, such as enhanced hardness and lower melting temperatures.
1. Steel, which is made up of iron (metal) and carbon (non-metal).
2. Bronze, a metal alloy of copper and tin (metal).
3. Brass, a metal alloy of copper and zinc (metal).
C. Non-metal oxides are acidic (or) neutral in nature, whereas metal oxides are always basic in nature.
Final Answer :
Hardness, toughness, corrosion resistance, magnetizability, and ductility are all characteristics of steel.
