Structure
of Alloys
They are produced by mixing
the molten metals and allowing them to cool
slowly.
Notice
that there are empty spaces within the lattice of
a metal.
These
empty spaces can be filled with atoms (ions) of
another metal and that is the structure of an
alloy.
Arrangement of
atoms (ions) in a typical alloy made up of almost equal amounts of two
different metals
