Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
An alloy is created from a mixture of two or more metals.
Brass is created from a mixture of copper and zinc. It is used to make musical instruments. Pewter is made from a mixture of tin, copper, antimony and bismuth. It is used in utensils. Steel is made from a mixture of carbon and iron. It is used in constructions, utensils etcetera. But, tin is an element and not an alloy. It is made up of atoms of tin only and does not contain a combination of other materials.
Conclusion:
Tin is not an alloy. Option B is correct.
