An alloy is a chemically bonded combination of a metal with at least one other element (not necessarily another metal). It does not have to be any specific type of metal. For instance, a common alloy is steel which is mostly iron, but has a small percentage of carbon (a non-metal). Another common alloy is brass which is an alloy of copper and zinc, and sometimes has tin in it as well.
