Report: The percentage of copper in given brass sample is 88.25%.

Inference: Since the above material has more amount of copper,it yields rosy tone and forms protective oxide layer from corrosion.

Societal Application: This alloy is used in harsh environmental conditions to prevent corrosion.

Report: The percentage of iron present in the ore is 18.225576%.

Inference: The ore sample is not economicalto get iron as it contains very less amount of iron.

Societal Application: 1) This estimation helps us to get the desired amount of iron efficiently.
2) This helps us to avoid the extraction of iron from the less enriched ore.
