Brass is the alloy between copper and zinc; sometimes other minor alloying elements are added (Pb, Sn, Fe, Al, As, Mn).
Even though brass is a copper alloy, generally made up of about 95% copper and 5% zinc, copper is a softer metal. Copper has a higher heat capacity though, meaning than brass heats up more quickly than copper.
Brass is a mixture composed primarily of copper and zinc. It is not a pure element because it contains more than one type of atom, and it is not a compound because it does not have a fixed chemical composition.
No. Copper is a single element.
Brass is an alloy made from combining copper with zinc, while copper is a pure elemental metal. Brass is more corrosion-resistant than copper and has a golden color, while copper has a reddish-brown color and is a good conductor of electricity.
a compound is what i thank to i learned that in 5th grade.
yes
Medals are made of red brass that is electroplated to the color they want. Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, so all medals are made of more than one element.
Yes it is an alloy of copper and zinc.

An alloy is any metal which contains atoms from more than one kind of element. Examples include: brass (made of copper and zinc), bronze (made from copper and tin) and steels (made from iron and a combination of other elements).
No. Copper is a single element.
Typically copper, but it is much harder than copper.

Compound- it is made up of more than one element.
Linear Temperature Expansion Coefficient (10-6 in/in oF) Brass = 10.4 Steel = 7.3 Therefore brass will expand or contract more steel.
A compound.
