How is steel an improvement over iron?
Steel is clean an has less impurities than iron, steel also has high alloys in it like chrome, vanadium an Molly to make stronger, take a hammer an hit a peace of steal then take that hammer an hit a peace of iron, the iron will dent.It is lighter and stronger.
Will reducing carbon in steel increase malleability?
Yes. Carbon is added to iron in steel to make the steel stronger by making it more rigid. The more rigid a metal is, the less malleable it is.
Why do they make window frames from aluminium and not steel?
Window frames used to be made from steel but aluminium is lighter and does not rust.
How is steel found?
steel is found in most part of the world as it is increasingly produced and used in all if not most parts of the world it does not occur naturally as it is an alloy of iron and other element such as carbon , nmanganese etc . also the steel is produced in steel mill.
What is a better stronger harder metal than steel to make a bike lock out of?
titanium
What element is frequently added to steel to make it a stronger product?
Cobalt. (cobalt steel)
Iron and carbon combine to make what?
Wrought iron- less than 0.25% C Steel- 0.2%-2% of C

Yes. Carbon is added to iron in steel to make the steel stronger by making it more rigid. The more rigid a metal is, the less malleable it is.
Why is steel so strong?
Probably because steel is made of several different metals that may make it's structure stronger than most metals.
Why do they make window frames from aluminium and not steel?
Window frames used to be made from steel but aluminium is lighter and does not rust.
What element can be added to it to make it even stronger?
carbon
What physical properties does titanium have that make it a better choice for a racing bike than the alloy steel?
Basically, Titanium is stronger. This means that you can use less of it and still end up with a lighter bike that is strong enough to ride.
Is hardness of steel a chemical property?
Yes. Various elements are added to steel to make it harder, or stainless, etc. Tungsten is typically added to iron to make harder steel, but there are other elements for this, also.
What elements can be added to iron to make it even stronger?
carbon
