Question

What is a ferrous alloy?

Definition
Short Note

Solution

Ferrous alloys have atoms of other elements distributed randomly in atoms of iron in the mixture. As the percentage of iron is more, they are termed ferrous alloys.

e.g. Nickel steel, chromium steel, stainless steel etc. All steels have 2% carbon.
