What are the improvement from ordinary iron to stainless steel?
The improvement from iron to stainless steel is that another metal alloy had been created. This new alloy allows for improvements to life in general since it has other uses than that of ordinary iron. Surgical instruments come to mind, they would not exist as we know them without the evolution of metallurgy which made stainless steel and many other useful alloys possible.
What is the difference between steel stainless steel and aluminum?
Steel is a composition of (primarily) Carbon and Iron. The more carbon, the harder, less ductile the steel. Stainless steel is Carbon, Iron and Chromium, that is galvinized (diped into zinc, which corrodes the outer layer of stainless steel,) making it stainless.
What is mixed with iron to make stainless steel?
Chromium
Can sweat ruin stainless steel?
In some cases yes. If the stainless steel was not passified (removing iron particles left on stainless steel by contact with tool steel dies) with nitric or sulfuric acid then yes.
What type of stainless steel will rust the fastest?
Iron (Iron is the only pure metal that rusts, all other metals corrode)

Why stainless steel is better then iron?
Stainless steel is stronger and retards rust unlike iron
What are the 4 main elements in stainless steel?
The four main elements in stainless steel are iron, chromium, nickel, and carbon. These elements interact to provide stainless steel with its unique properties such as corrosion resistance, strength, and durability.
Which food are made in vessels of following metals iron brass stainless steel?
stainless steel
Does water with high iron content cause stainless steel fittings to rust?
Good quality stainless steel should never rust. I have noticed that the high iron content in our water causes red particles of iron oxide to remain on stainless steel vessels - and it looks exactly like rust but its just the iron in the water drying out on the stainless steel.
What shiny mirror-like metal is mixed with iron to make stainless steel?
Chrome is used with iron to create stainless steel alloys.
Is stainless steel a non ferrous metal?
No, stainless steel is not a non-ferrous metal. It is an alloy made of iron, chromium, nickel, and other elements. Stainless steel contains a significant amount of iron, which is a ferrous metal.
Which element is the odd one out nickel iron stainless steel or cobalt?
Stainless Steel; all other choices are elements - stainless steel is a steel alloy (composite elements).
Is stainless steel a pure substance or a mixture?
No; steel is an iron-carbon alloy. Stainless steel is an alloy of steel with chromium added. Stainless steel is usually 13-25% chromium (by weight).
How ordinary iron become stainless steel?
By adding other metals like chrome and nickel to the mix. the resulting alloy is the strongly corrosion resistant.
What is stainless steel used to make?
It is iron and add 0.5 percent of carbon for making stainless steel.
What is the percentage of iron in stainless steel?
That depends on the type of stainless; it will vary betwen 65-80% iron
