Alloy Ap

An alloy is harder than its pure metal because the foreign atoms in the alloy

• increase the bond strength between the atoms.

• increase the empty spaces between the atoms.

• react with the pure metal atoms to form a compound.

• reduce the ability of the atoms to slide across each other.
