The two most commonly used metals in solder are?
The two most commonly used metals in solder are tin and lead. They are typically mixed together in different proportions to create solder with different melting points and properties for various applications.
Tin and lead mixed together makes what?
solder--its an alloy used 4 joining metals
What is the solute and the solvent in solder?
In soldering, the solute is the metal alloy that is being melted to join two metals together. Typically, this alloy consists of tin and lead. The solvent, on the other hand, is the flux which helps to clean the surface of the metals and remove any oxides, ensuring a better bond between the metals and the solder.
Is lead solder a ferrous metal?
No, lead solder is not a ferrous metal. Ferrous metals contain iron, while lead solder is primarily composed of tin and lead.
Why is an alloy called solder used for welding?
It isn't. It's called soldering when you join two pieces of metals together using a 3rd metal with a very low melting point. Welding, then both the "parent" metals and the added metals are melted. Usually at a lot higher temperature.
How do you solder two metals?
with solder

What 2 alloys are in solder?
Standard solder is an alloy of the two metals tin & lead. However there are countless other alloy variants with other metals in the blend for various purposes.
How do you make gold solder?
Gold solder is made by alloying pure gold with other metals to lower its melting point and improve its workability. Common metals used in gold solder include silver, copper, and zinc. The specific ratio of these metals varies depending on the desired color and melting temperature of the solder. Once the alloy is created, it can be formed into thin sheets or wires for use in jewelry making and metalwork.
Tin and lead mixed together makes what?

Is solder a element or a compound?
It is a mixture
What element is used to make a mixture solder used in joining wires?
usually a mixture of tin and lead metals are used

Can gold be welded?
YES. Seeing gold can be melted it can be welded also. As welding is the melting of two types of similar metals to be joined to make one. I bet it is more common to braze or solder it.
Is there another low melting point metal used in wire besides lead?
Yes, "Solder", here is an excerpt and a site to explain: == Solder is a tin-lead fusible alloy, although small amounts of other metals such as antimony, bismuth, or silver may be included to enhance its characteristics or make it suitable for a special purpose. Solder flows at a fairly low temperature, around 360-370 degrees Fahrenheit. Because of its relatively low melting point, solder can for a metallic union or "joint" of two metals well below their own melting points. So solder can easily be melted by home- workshop soldering irons, guns, and pencils to make connections between metals. * http://www.oldtemecula.com/theremin/solder1.htm
What element is in solder?
Solder can be configured with several different types of metals. For instance, silver solder would contain a portion of silver along with another metal. Common electrical solder usually contains a mixture of tin and lead in the ratio of 60/40. That too can vary if the manufacturer wants to make a solder that requires a higher tempreature to melt it.
What is a solder and how does it work?
Turn the soldering iron on.Clean the surfaces to be soldered. Any tarnish will make a bad joint.Put the two things you want to solder together.When the iron is ready, place it on where you want to join the two objects.Slightly tilt the side if the point of the iron up, enough for the solder to fit in, and feed the solder in.Keep hold of the two objects until the solder is cool, otherwise the will just come apart.
