Most people I know would think steel can be strongest. Of course, we would not have made some important stuff with steel, but platinum may be stronger than steel. I think I also know why the person I'm answering couldn't solve this. Because both steel and platinum are both types of metal. While the boiling point of steel is around 1370 degree C, platinum's melting point is 1774 degree C exact. Well, I guess that answers your question!

Why is steel stronger than copper?

Steel is stronger than copper because of its higher carbon content and the way it is processed. Steel undergoes a heat treatment process called quenching and tempering, which increases its hardness and strength. Copper, on the other hand, is a softer metal and does not have the same level of tensile strength as steel.


Is steel heavier than gold?

Yes, gold is much denser and very much more conductive than materials that we otherwise use. Thus making excellent heat transfers and also being very precious and rare in its pure state. Uranium is much denser than gold.


Which are a mixture gold steel iron nickel?

A mixture of gold, steel, iron, and nickel would be considered a heterogeneous mixture since the individual components can be visually distinguished. Gold is a precious metal with a distinct yellow color, while steel is an alloy primarily composed of iron and carbon. Iron is a pure element known for its strength and magnetic properties, and nickel is another metallic element often used in alloys for its corrosion resistance. The combination of these materials would result in a mixture with varying physical and chemical properties.


What is harder brass or bronze?

Brass is harder than bronze because it contains a higher percentage of zinc which gives it a harder and more durable quality. Bronze, on the other hand, is softer and more malleable due to its higher copper content.


What metals dont rust?

Metals such as gold, platinum, and silver are highly resistant to rusting because they do not easily react with oxygen in the air. Stainless steel, which contains chromium, is also known for its rust-resistant properties.

WHAT is stronger stainless steel or white gold?

Stainless steel is generally stronger and more durable than white gold. Stainless steel is a very hard metal and it is more scratch-resistant compared to white gold. White gold, on the other hand, is a softer metal that may scratch or show signs of wear more easily than stainless steel.


Which is harder 22 karat gold or mild steel?

22 Karat gold is not pure gold (91% Gold) so it depends what the other 9% is. For instance: Jewellery gold is 91% Gold 5% silver 2% copper 1.33% Zinc The Young's modulus of Gold is 79 GPa mild steel quotes a maximum of 210 GPa (Bigger is stronger) Therefore Gold at 22 karat is not stronger than mild steel.


Which is stronger steel or brass?

Steel is stronger.


Is gold stronger then metal?

Gold is a metal itself, so it is not accurate to say it is stronger than metal in general. However, gold is relatively soft compared to other metals like steel or titanium, which are often used for their strength.


What is the differences between steel and gold?

Steel is stronger then gold and more abounded then gold ... Gold is worth more the steel ... Gold is less abounded ... the main reason why Gold is worth more then steel is that it does not oxide ... which means it don't rust ...
