I say "more than one element and has the properties of a metal."

But Barron says "one element and has the properties of a metal".

So, who is right?

I checked wikiepdia and it says "An alloy is a combination, either in solution or compound, of two or more elements, at least one of which is a metal, and where the resulting material has metallic properties"


THANKS 😀

You are right. Alloy is a homogeneous mixture or solid solution of two or more metals. (e.g. Brass is an alloy of zinc and copper)
