Detailed explanation-4: -Alloys are homogenous mixtures of a metal with a metal or non-metal.
Detailed explanation-5: -An alloy is a mixture of two or more metals, or a metal and a nonmetal, in which the composition of each element used is uniform throughout the volume. Brass(copper and zinc), bronze(copper and tin) and steel(iron and carbon) are a few examples of alloys.
