Question

How is silver, gold, and bronze different.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Silver and gold are very precious metals while bronze is an alloy. Alloys are the mixture of two or more than two metals or neon metals. The atomic number of silver and gold are 47 and 79 respectively. Bronze is an alloy of copper and tin.

Silver and gold are both malleable and ductile metals. They also belongs from transition metals. They possess lusture i.e. they possess quality of reflecting light from its surface. Silver is a very good conductor of heat and electricity. Gold is also a good conductor. But copper is used in electrical appliances because it is cheaper.

Answer 2

Answer:

Silver is a malleable and ductile metal having atomic number 47 and symbol Ag. Gold on the hand has atomic number 79 and symbol Au. It is also ductile and malleable. Both are soft and lustrous in nature. Both are transition metals.

Bronze is an alloy of majority of copper and some amount of tin.  Formation of alloy enhances the properties of the metal and its industrial use. Bronze is harder than copper and easily fusible and easy to cast. It is resists corrosion.

Silver and gold have different atomic numbers, different colors. Both are transition elements where as Bronze is an alloy.
