Usually. However there are other properties that affect it too.
Because it improves the material properties of the resulting metal.
It is an alloy with a base metal of zinc and alloying elements of aluminum, magnesium, and copper. It is a medium metal as far as strength goes (less than stainless steel).
Alloy of a metal increases its hardness. Gold becomes hard when copper is mixed in it. Alloy of a metal gives it a different colour. An alloy of copper and aluminium (known as aluminium bronze) has a beautiful golden yellow colour. It is used for interior decoration.
Alloying of a metal is when you mix one metal with another thus forming an alloy.
An alloy is mixture combining two or more elements. The importance is that by alloying a metal, the properties can be enhanced. For example steel, which is an alloy of iron with carbon, is stronger than iron.
It is quite pure but does have traces of alloying metal in
Because it improves the material properties of the resulting metal.
There is no one single answer to your question as various alloying materials will achieve this. There are also various forms of fatigue failure, for instance thermal and bending, which will be affected by what alloying material is present.
Manganese is a metal. It is also used as an alloying element in steel.
No. An alloy is an intimate mixture of 2 or more metals. Steels are actually regarded as being of 2 basic types - carbon and alloy. Carbon is an alloying element in carbon steels; there are other examples, such as: oxygen is regarded as an alloying element in zircaloy, silicon is an alloying element in aluminum and ferro-silicon, phosphorus in some types of bronze, etc. (not important if it is a metal or a non- metal).
It is an alloy with a base metal of zinc and alloying elements of aluminum, magnesium, and copper. It is a medium metal as far as strength goes (less than stainless steel).
Alloys are obtained by melting the base metal with the alloying components.

Nuclear research and nuclear medicine, as well as alloying with other metals to improve the workability of the metal.
- alloying metal in stainless steel- chroming of other metals
If the other alloying metal is copper (or metals with densities close to that of copper's 8,6 such as nickel or silver which are the most common) then around half the volume is gold the other half is alloying metal.
