← HistoryWhich outcome was mitigated as bronze metallurgy advanced during the Bronze Age?
A)Increased tool work hardening rate
B)Erratic alloy compositional segregation✓
C)Accelerated copper ore pit collapses
D)Greater susceptibility to atmospheric oxidation
💡 Explanation
Advancements in bronze metallurgy reduced variations during smelting; therefore compositional segregation became less significant throughout manufactured bronze tools. Better process control meant more homogeneous mixing, rather than localized 'pockets' of different metals forming which caused weaknesses.
