Indicate whether each statement is true or false: a. Substitutional alloys tend to be more ductile than interstitial alloys. b. Interstitial alloys tend to form between elements with similar ionic radii. c. Nonmetallic elements are never found in alloys.

Substitutional alloys tend to be more ductile than interstitial alloys. true

Interstitial alloys tend to form between elements with similar ionic radii.false

Nonmetallic elements are never found in alloys. false

Explanation:

Substitutional alloys consists components having similar atomic(ionic) radii as well as common bonding characteristics. In interstitial alloys, atoms in interstitial positions must have a much smaller covalent radius than the solvent atoms. Interstitial atoms are generally less ductile than substitutional alloys.

Nonmetals are found in alloys. For instance, carbon is a component of the common alloy called steel.

a is the answer to this question

explanation:

i think it's c. i'm not sure but i think so.
