    Cupronickel is an alloy containing Nickel and which other metal?

    Question #128892. Asked by fado72. (Jan 10 13 2:39 AM)

    		As is suggested by the name of the alloy, it is copper. The 'cupro' comes from cuprum, a derivation of cyprium as the ore was originally mined in large quantities on Cyprus.
