They are both alloys:)
Bronze, solder.
Bronze is made from lead, tin, and copper; if you leave out the copper you get an impoverished bronze.
Tin, copper, lead. (So Bronze, solder, brass.)
Yes: flux core solder is. No: acid core solder is not.
Six types of bad solder connections include a cold joint with insufficient wetting (Pin) or insufficient wetting (Pad), a disturbed joint, an overheated joint, too much solder, or not enough solder.

Solder, (lead + tin); Brass, (copper + zinc); Bronze, (copper + tin).
No. An alloy is a mixture of two or more metals. Tin is a metal by itself. Tin can still be made into an alloy. Such alloys are pewter or solder.
with solder
There are two major uses for it. It is used to coat food cans, to keep them from rusting. Tin has low toxicity, so you can safely store food in tin-plated steel cans. It is also used to make solder, which is used to join electrical components into circuits.
Yes, usually no problem. If you know how to solder, then solder away.
In some solder it is. But even if it is in the solder you should still use flux.
Yes: flux core solder is. No: acid core solder is not.
It's used in solder. It's used to rustproof food cans. It's used in processing slides as the active ingredient in the reversal bath. Tin alloyed with copper makes bronze.
The basic answer is that an Alloy is more than one metal combined to create another metal. EG: Steel Bronze Solder Most jewelry "gold" Most Jewelry "silver"
