Question

give scientific reason an alloy is a mixture​

Answer 1

Answer:

In general mixture is defined as the mixing of two or more molecules to form a compounds.

Alloys are defined as the mixture of two or more metals which results the formation of alloys.

As the mixture and alloys have the same property of having two or more molecules.

So alloys are considered as a mixture.

EX :-Amalgan = Mercury + any metal.

Answer 2

Explanation:

When two ore more metals are mixed with each other then two phenomenon may occur.

either they can form a mixture which mean all the metals will remain there actual form they will not react with each other. It means there will be no chemical reaction between them. That's why they are called as mixture not compound. There phisical and chemical properties will depend on the metals mixed.

Or different metal can react with each other and can form a compound which will be chemically different from both of the base metal. So they are called as compound.

Since all the alloys are mixture of metals not compound so they are called as mixture.
