पर्याय

• bronze

• brass

• fuse metal

Answer 1

An alloy used to make statues is bronze.

Explanation:

Bronze is an alloy made mainly of copper and tin, and it is preferred for sculpting statues because it expands slightly before setting, filling the finest details of a mould. It also develops a beautiful protective layer (patina) over time that resists environmental corrosion. In contrast, brass is mainly used for musical instruments or utensils, and fuse metal has a low melting point meant strictly for electrical safety devices.
