Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc. Common brass or rivet brass is 63% copper and 37% zinc, and that's probably most of the brass we see. But there are a whole bunch of different alloys out there. Use the link to the Wikipedia article on brass to see a list of some of them and find out more about this versatile alloy.
What else can I help you with?
What are the main elements brass is made of?
Brass is primarily made of copper and zinc, with copper typically making up the majority of the composition. Other elements like lead, aluminum, and tin may also be added in smaller amounts to achieve specific properties.
Is brass an element compound or a homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture?
Brass is an alloy (a homogeneous mixture).
Is brass an element?
No, it's not an element. Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc. There can optionally be traces of other elements typically arsenic.Brass is neither an element or a compound. It is an alloy.
Why is brass steal and bronze not in the periodic table?
Brass is a compound (or to be technically correct, an alloy) made from the elements zinc and copper. Both of these elements can be found in the transition metals section of the periodic table.
Is brass made up of more than 1 element?
Yes, brass is an alloy made up of two main elements - copper and zinc. Copper typically makes up the majority of the composition, while zinc is added to increase the hardness and durability of the alloy.
Is brass a metallic element?
Brass itself is not an element, but it is made of two metallic elements (copper and zinc). Brass is an 'alloy', a combination of two metals.
Why aren't brass and bronze elements?
Brass and bronze are both alloys: metals made by combining two or more metals. Because alloys contain two different types of molecules, brass and bronze aren't elements. * Brass is composed of copper and zinc * Bronze is composed of copper and tin
Brass is on the periodic table?
Brass is not on the periodic table because it is a metal alloy that is made by mixing copper and zinc. Copper and zinc are elements that can be found on the periodic table, but brass itself is not an element.
Why is brass not a mineral?
Brass is an alloy made primarily of copper and zinc, while minerals are naturally occurring inorganic substances with a specific chemical composition and crystalline structure. Since brass is a mixture of elements created by humans, it does not qualify as a mineral.
What are the main elements brass is made of?

Is brass a compound or a solution?
Brass is not a compound or a solution. It is an alloy, which is a mixture of two or more elements, with at least one being a metal. Brass is made by combining copper and zinc, without creating a chemical bond between the two elements.
When were stapler invented?
In the 1860's brass wire staples were made, and the machine to dispenser them was made in 1866
Why is brass steal and bronze not in the periodic table?
Brass is a compound (or to be technically correct, an alloy) made from the elements zinc and copper. Both of these elements can be found in the transition metals section of the periodic table.
Why is the cornet made of brass?
Because it is a brass instrument...? Many instruments are made of brass.
Does brass contain elements or compounds?
Elements. Copper and Zinc to be specific.
