A solid mixture of two or more metallic elements. The properties of the alloy can be significantly different from any of the constituents. For example, [[copper|copper]] and [[nickel|nickel]] individually have high electrical conductivities, but their alloy is a poor electrical conductor. Small amounts of additional materials can also produced major changes in a metal. For example, [[iron|iron]] can be changed into [[steel|steel]] with the addition of 1% of [[carbon|carbon]]. In general, alloys are harder and more corrosion resistant than the individual metals. An [[amalgam|amalgam]] is a specific type of alloy containing [[mercury|mercury]] and any other metal. Examples of some common alloys are: [[cast%20iron|cast iron]], [[stainless%20steel|stainless steel]], [[brass|brass]], [[bronze|bronze]], and [[sterling%20silver|sterling silver]].
