उत्तर
The non-metal present in steel is carbon.
Explanation:
Steel is an interstitial alloy composed primarily of iron with a small percentage of carbon, typically ranging from 0.02% to 2.1% by weight. The small carbon atoms fit into the spaces between the larger iron atoms, disrupting the crystal lattice and preventing the layers from sliding past each other easily. This structural change significantly increases the hardness, tensile strength, and durability of the material compared to pure iron
