why is iron is alloyed with other metals to produce alloy steels
Alloy steel Strictly speaking, every steel is an alloy, but not all steels are called "alloy steels". The simplest steels are iron (Fe) alloyed with carbon (C) (about 0.1% to 1%, depending on type). However, the term "alloy steel" is the standard term referring to steels with other alloying elements added deliberately in addition to the carbon. Common alloyants include manganese (the most common one), nickel, chromium, molybdenum, vanadium, silicon, and boron. Less common alloyants include aluminum, cobalt, copper, cerium, niobium, titanium, tungsten, tin, zinc, lead, and zirconium.
Small intestine Absorption of the majority of nutrients takes place in the jejunum, with the following notable exceptions:
Classic car Cars 20 years and older typically fall into the classic class.
Isotope Isotopes are atoms of the same element having the same numbers of protons (atomic number), but different numbers of neutrons. They have same chemical properties due to the same electron configuration, but different physical properties.[citation needed]
