| Solder || 50% iron + 50% lead || varies || In the real world, "solder" describes many different materials that are very different from one another in composition. They all melt at low temperatures, solidify at room temperature, and are used to bond objects together, but the varieties used for electrical circuits, plumbing parts, and jewelry are each tailored for their applications. "Classic" solder is a mixture of lead and ''tin'', but modern solder often contains no lead (as it's toxic). Iron is not a typical solder ingredient. (However, the tool used to melt and apply solder is generally called an "iron", whatever it's made of.) | | Solder || 50% iron + 50% lead || varies || In the real world, "solder" describes many different materials that are very different from one another in composition.
