Mild steel is ___________________?

Correct answer: A. A low carbon steel (0.05 to 0.3% carbon)

  • A. A low carbon steel (0.05 to 0.3% carbon)
  • B. Highly resistant to corrosion (as much as stainless steel)
  • C. A high carbon steel (0.5 to 1.5% carbon)
  • D. Very poor in strength & ductility

Explanation

Mild steel is low-carbon steel, commonly containing roughly 0.05 to 0.3% carbon, which gives it good ductility and weldability. It is not as corrosion-resistant as stainless steel.
