Question

In the context of properties of steel, which of the following statements is highly relevant?

A.

Presence of manganese decreases strength.

B.

Presence of carbon does not influence the heat-treatment process.

C.

Presence of carbon contents imparts strength to iron.

D.

Presence of sulphide improves corrosion resistance.

Answer ( Option C)

Presence of carbon contents imparts strength to iron.

Solution

In the context of properties of steel :

●With increasing carbon, the hardness and strength of unalloyed steels increases.

●Above a content of 0.8% C, the strength decreases.

●As the carbon content increases, the proportion of cementite in the steel also increases.

Hence, the correct option is (C).
