← HistoryWhich outcome occurred when increased tin was included with Chalcolithic copper?
A)Formation of far superior bronze✓
B)Increased molten metal temperature
C)Enhanced corrosion resistance formed
D)Faster smelting of impure sources
💡 Explanation
Adding tin resulted in the alloy solid solution strengthening mechanism, creating Bronze. This produced a much harder cutting tool, therefore bronze outperformed pure copper rather than merely changing temperature or resistance, because those were properties of other processes instead.
