Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
When a particular metal is mixed with another metal or non-metal to prepare a homogeneous mixture, it is called an alloy. An alloy is a mixture of two or more metals, or a metal and a nonmetal, with a uniform composition of each element used throughout the volume. Alloys include brass (copper and zinc), bronze (copper and tin), and steel (iron and carbon). Alloys are two or more elemental mixtures that are homogeneous.
The corrected statement would be, “Alloys are a heterogenous mixture of metals with other metals and non-metals”.
