Steel was preferred over iron primarily due to its superior strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion. Unlike iron, which can be brittle and susceptible to rust, steel can be alloyed and tempered to enhance its properties, making it ideal for construction, tools, and machinery. Additionally, steel's versatility allows for a wide range of applications, from everyday items to specialized industrial uses. This combination of qualities made steel the material of choice during the industrial revolution and continues to be favored today.
I assume you mean "soft iron" ... so that it quickly loses its magnetism when the current flow stops.
for its dependence on gravity.
Iron filings can't be dissolved in water, but, over time iron filling in water will rust away.
The element Zinc (Zn)
Because iron is more reactive than copper. If iron displaces copper, that releases energy (enthalpy). If copper were to displace iron, that would require energy to be used. This is less favourable and , averaged over the huge number of molecules, atoms and ions in the solution, the more energy producing reaction is vastly preferred. Hence, iron put into copper sulphate solution gets coated in copper and the solution slowly loses its blue colour. But if you put copper metal in iron sulphate solution, nothing noticable occurs.
Asbestos provides better insulation, because it is thicker and denser than iron.

Yes; during the goldrush, the bushrangers would steal gold. However, they preferred to steal cash as no exchange was required.
with the addition of carbon to iron the bonds created are stronger and often more flexible that just pure iron. the same goes for many other alloys.
the steal
Iron, chromium and nickel
steal, copper, iron, titanium
if you mean why is a desktop preferred over a laptop. then i would answer that they aren't and that laptops are preferred because of their convenience
iron copper steal
There is no steel in minecraft. You're referring to iron, and you need to smelt iron ore in a furnace.
Steel is clean an has less impurities than iron, steel also has high alloys in it like chrome, vanadium an Molly to make stronger, take a hammer an hit a peace of steal then take that hammer an hit a peace of iron, the iron will dent.It is lighter and stronger.
