Neither, it is an alloy of Zinc and Copper. The difference is, in a compound, the elements are chemically bonded together, so a Copper Sulphate crystal is a compound of Copper, Sulphur and Oxygen - CuSO4.
An alloy is a solid mixture made by melting two metals together. The Zinc is not chemically bonded to any of the Copper.

∙ 11y agoNo, brass is an alloy (chemical solution) of copper and zinc. It is not considered a compound, although the mixture has different chemical properties due to the arrangement of the atoms.
It is not an atomic combination (compound) because the ratios of the metals can be varied without regard to the percentages of either metal. Steel is also an alloy of several elements, not a compound.

Is brass an element compound or a homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture?
Brass is a homogeneous mixture. It is made up of a combination of copper and zinc, which are two elements. As a homogeneous mixture, brass has a uniform composition and properties throughout.
Is Brass a element or a compound or a mixture?
Brass is a mixture of the metals Zinc and Copper.
Is the substance brass a compound?
No. Brass is a mixture.
Is carbon elements compound or mixture?
It is a compound Carbon is an element.
How is a mixture and compound different?
A mixture is something that is mixed and a compound is 2 elements chemicly joined together!!!

Is brass an element compound or mixture?
Brass is a mixture of copper and zinc.
Is Brass a element or a compound or a mixture?
Brass is a mixture of the metals Zinc and Copper.
Is the substance brass a compound?
No. Brass is a mixture.
Is brass an mixture?
No, it's an alloy which is a compound.
Is Fe a mixture element or a compound?
They are elements not compound mixture
Is brass a mixture element compound or a solution?
brass is an alloy of copper and zinc.
Is brass an compound?
Brass is not a compound, because its atomic composition can vary from one sample to another. Instead brass is a mixture, of the special type called an alloy, because it is a mixture primarily of metals.
Is electricity a compound or elements or mixture?
electricity is not a compound, mixture or element.
What are the components of brass?
Brass is an ALLOY , a mixture of the metallic elements of copper and zinc. They do NOT chemically combine. A compound involves the exchange of electrons between the reacting atoms. A mixture(alloy) doe NOT involve this exchange of electrons.
Is brass an element or a compound or a homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture?
Brass is a homogeneous mixture because it is an alloy consisting of copper and zinc. Alloys are made from combinations of different metals. Homogeneous mixtures are uniform in their compositions.
Is copper a compound or elements or mixture?
Copper is a element. It is neither compound nor mixture.
