Hello.
00:01
In this question it has been given that component is a chemical constituent of an alloy that may be used to specify its composition.
00:09
It can be dash.
00:10
Okay so before we answer this question and go through the options, let's try to understand what is an alloy.
00:18
Okay, an alloy is a homogeneous mixture of two or more metals or a metal and non -metal.
00:46
Okay, so it can be both, right? so it can have two or more metals together or it can have metal and nonmetals together in a fixed proportion, right? so that is important.
00:55
So it has a fixed proportion.
01:04
Okay, for example, brass is a alloy of copper and zinc.
01:14
Okay, brass is alloy of copper and zinc, right? so the percentage of copper is 70%.
01:20
The percentage of copper is 70%.
01:24
Okay, and zinc is 30%.
01:27
So this makes up the alloy.
01:30
Okay, so now we are clear with the definition of alloy and the composition component part...
