copper is NOT an alloy, it is an elemental metal
It is an alloy of copper.
Brass is the alloy of copper and zinc.
They do not alloy. Copper and tin form bronze, but do not alloy with steel or iron.
Brass is an alloy made by combining copper with zinc. It is not a nonmetal; it is a metallic alloy.
How much of an alloy that is 10% copper should be mixed with 400 ounces of an alloy that is 70% copper in order to get an alloy that is 20%
Copper (symbol Cu) is not an alloy it is an element containing only atoms of copper.
Zinc and Copper Copper and zinc make up the mixture (alloy) brass.
Copper is mined as copper it is not an alloy
Copper is an element.Steel is a alloy.
To make beryllium copper alloy, beryllium is melted into copper, usually with a copper beryllium master alloy that contains a controlled amount of beryllium. The mixture is then cast into the desired shape and cooled to solidify, resulting in the beryllium copper alloy.
200 ounces.
Let ( x ) be the amount of the 40% copper alloy needed. The equation based on the copper content is: [ 0.40x + 0.70(500) = 0.50(x + 500) ] Solving this equation, we find: [ 0.40x + 350 = 0.50x + 250 ] [ 100 = 0.10x ] [ x = 1000 ] Thus, you need to mix 1000 ounces of the 40% copper alloy with 500 ounces of the 70% copper alloy to obtain an alloy that is 50% copper.
