Question
Chapter 2, Problem 2.1P
To determine
Composition of material.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Alloy and other material are formed by two or more elements. The material and alloy have different properties depending upon percentage of elements in the material. This percentage amount of elements in the material is known as composition of material. Composition of material majorly depends on the temperature.
Properties of material change with the composition of any elements in the material.
Thus, the percentage amount of elements in material is known as composition of material.
