<span>Brass is an <u>alloy</u>. An alloy
is a mixture of elements to form a unique material. Brass is a mixture of copper
and zinc and the percentage of each element depends on the desired material. It
has a higher malleability than bronze or zinc. Meaning that it can be bend
easily into it desired form.</span>
Answer: The chemical formula for the compound of these two elements is 
Explanation:
For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.
Here metal lead is having an oxidation state of +4 called as 
cation and sulphur non metal has oxidation state of -2 called as 
. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral
The chemical formula for the compound of these two elements is
We don't know that at all. The 3rd law says that the REaction is opposite and EQUAL to the action. We don't know where that "twice as much" comes from.
