Yes, stainless steel is an iron-carbon alloy with a minimum of 11.5 wt% chromium content. Many of the common grades of stainless steel such as AISI 304, 316, 316L also have greater than 5% Nickel added. It improves the high temperature performance and stabilizes the austenite phase.
It is an example of an alloy. Mild steel or high carbon steel can be formed using different metals such as mainly iron and carbon. Other metals can be added such as nickel and chromium to form stainless steel.
Yes! All steel is an alloy since there is no base atom "steel". An example of a non alloy would be gold, silver, aluminum, etc. If the metal is not on the periodic chart of the elements, it is an alloy. Stainless steel is in fact defined as a steel alloy--steel itself being mostly iron (an element) with added carbon--alloyed with at least ten percent chromium by mass.
HC Steel means High Carbon Steel in which carbon content is 10% - 12 % depending on Application
Yes, D-2 is a high carbon tool steel. D-2 tool steel has about 1.55% carbon in its chemical composition. Any grade of tool steel with more than 0.5% carbon is generally considered to be a high carbon tool steel. Tool steel needs to have a minimum of .4% carbon to harden properly. For more information on tool steels, their properties and alloying element, please see the related link.

Oversimplifying it alot: Iron + Carbon --> High Carbon Steel High Carbon Steel + Chromium & other surface alloy metals --> Stainless Steel Basically Stainless Steel is ordinary Steel with a surface Chrome Steel layer protecting it from corrosion.
It depends on the chromium content. If it is 13% or more, it creates stainless steel. Any less then that would still be considered as high carbon, tool steel, etc.
Stainless steal is a mixture of carbon (2%) atoms and chromium (13%) and steel (85%). Stainless steal is more brittle than other metals because of the high carbon content. Chromium helps protect the steel from rust.
I think you're asking what element steel is made of. It's mainly iron. It has varying amounts of carbon (that's why there's high-carbon steel and low-carbon steel), and sometimes some other elements as well, depending on what it is used for. For example, stainless steel has more than 10% chromium.
Its High carbon high chromium steel...............
Low carbon steel is steel with low carbon. High carbon steel is steel with high carbon
HSS is 18% Tungsten, 4% Chromium, 1% Vanadium, 0.7% Carbon and rest Iron
High alloy steel contain: iron (base), carbon, nickel, vanadium, chromium, molybdenum, wolfram, silicon, etc.
