(a)
To determine
The characteristics of an alloy.
(a)
Expert Solution
Explanation of Solution
The characteristics of an alloy are as follows.
- An alloy is a compound having two or more chemical elements, among them at least one is a metal.
- They are used to enhance the properties of pure metals.
- They could also form intermetallic compounds.
- The alloys are used to make a metal harder than before.
(b)
To determine

(b)
Expert Solution
Explanation of Solution
The characteristics of pearlite are as follows.
- It has an alternate layer of ferrite and cementite in its structure.
- It has properties between soft and ductile or hard and brittle.

Expert Solution
Explanation of Solution
Austenite is a form of steel used as a highly graded stainless steel. Some of the characteristics of austenite is as follows:
- It is an allotropic form of iron having an FCC crystal structure.
- This structure has a solid solubility of up to 2.11 %.
- It possesses good formability, as it becomes ductile at elevated temperature.
- Due its FCC structure it can dissolve nickel and manganese in it.
- Austenitic steel is non-magnetic at high temperatures.

To determine
The characteristics of martensite.
(d)
Expert Solution
Explanation of Solution
The characteristics of martensite are as follows.
- It is a tetragonal form of iron.
- It has the carbon present in the interstitial position thus helps to gives higher strength.
