Question:

What specific metals are in steel?

i found a similar question asking what metals were in stainless steel but i don't know if they are the same.... they probably aren't.

Answer:

steel is iron with a little bit of carbon mixed in. how much carbon determines the hardness of the steel. stainless steel is the same mostly, it has nickle and chromium added in to make it corrosion resistant.
