Q. Choose the word which is least like the other words in the group.

Correct Answer: (C)
Germanium
Explanation: Brass, Duralumin, and Bronze are alloys (mixtures of metals).
Brass = Copper + Zinc
Duralumin = Aluminum + Copper + Other metals
Bronze = Copper + Tin
Germanium, however, is a pure element (a metalloid) and not an alloy.
Thus, the least similar word is (C) Germanium.
