A Correct answer
Explanation

Monel is a group of nickel alloys, primarily composed of nickel (up to 67%) and copper, with small amounts of iron, manganese, carbon, and silicon. Stronger than pure nickel, Monel alloys are resistant to corrosion by many agents, including rapidly flowing seawater.

Being stronger than pure nickle Monel metal is used in making locks.
Hence option A is correct answer.

Which of the following is a steel that is resistant to acids?

  1. Nickel alloy steel

  2. Molybdenum steel

  3. Stainless steel

  4. Cobalt alloy steel
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Molybdenum can be obtained from the minerals molybdenite, wulfenite and powellite. It is also obtained as a byproduct during tungsten and copper mining and processing. It has one of the highest melting points of all pure elements; however it is not resistant to acids.Hence, molybdenum steel is also not resistant to acids.

Hence option B is correct answer.
