It's substitutional because Copper and Zinc have close atomic radius, so they substitute each other.
if one of the elements is small enough to fit between the larger atoms then it forms an interstitial .
Copper and zinc form the alloy brass.
No. Copper an tin form an alloy called bronze. An alloy, is a mixture not a compound. Metals can form binary compounds with nonmetals, but not other metals.
It varies with the alloy. Bronze is an alloy of copper and tin; brass is an alloy of copper and zinc; steel is an alloy of iron and other elements, most commonly carbon.
zinc and copper-its an alloy (homogeneous mixture) so it has variable composition
Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc Brass is a metal composed primarily of copper and zinc. Copper is the main component, and brass is usually classified as a copper alloy. The color of brass varies from a dark reddish brown to a light silvery yellow depending on the amount of zinc present; the more zinc, the lighter the color. Brass is stronger and harder than copper, but not as strong or hard as steel. It is easy to form into various shapes, a good conductor of heat, and generally resistant to corrosion from salt water. Because of these properties, brass is used to make pipes and tubes, weather-stripping and other architectural trim pieces, screws, radiators, musical instruments, and cartridge casings for firearms.
Brass is a substitutional alloy. Due to the similar size of the two elements copper and zinc which make brass one can not fill the interstitial space between the other elements atoms. This means that it can not be interstitial. The elements are however close in all the necessary aspects to form a substitutional alloy. They are relatively even in size, have the same crytal structure and have similar electronegativities. This allows one element to replace the other which in the case of brass where copper is the solvent, zinc atoms become a substitution for the copper atoms
They do not alloy. Copper and tin form bronze, but do not alloy with steel or iron.

Bronze is otained by melting Copper and Tin metals together to form an alloy.

Brasses are Copper with Zinc Common ones: Naval Brass (Alloy #462), Yellow (Alloy #270) and Alloy #360Bronzes are Copper with one of the following: Silicon, Manganese, Aluminum, Phosphorous or TinCopper-Nickels are Copper with NickelCopper is also sold in pure form mostly as an electrical conductor.

Yes; an example is the aluminium bronze.
Brass is a metal alloy made of copper and zinc.
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.
