The melting temperature of an alloy is generally lower than the melting temperature of the highest melting temperature of all of its constituents. The eutectic melting temperature is the lowest melting temperature of an alloy system and is in fact sort of defined by that optimal set of percentages of those constituents. The next obvious question is whether there are calculation methods or approximations to determine the melting range of less than "eutectic" percentages.

What is the advantage in making an alloy by mixing the elements as powders then heating them?
We can avoid high temperatures and save energy; but generally sintering occur at some temperature - of course under the melting point of the alloying elements.
Why are alloys prepared and how are they used?
Generally by melting together the components of the alloy. Also by pressing and sintering the components, in powder metallurgy.
What are 2 or more metals mixed together called?
Il several metals have been mixed together it is a mixture, if that mixture is then melted so that the metals mingle at the atomic level it is an alloy. However for certain metals that have widely different melting points making an alloy by simply melting the mixture of those metals will not work (the lower melting temperature metals will melt first and separate from the mixture, in some cases one or metals might even evaporate before the higher melting temperature metals have begun to melt). For such alloys the metals must be melted in groups forming other alloys that must then be blended to create the final intended alloy.
How alloy bronze is obtained?
Bronze is otained by melting Copper and Tin metals together to form an alloy.
What is the melting point of billon?
This depends on the chemical composition of the alloy.

Can you calculate the melting point of an alloy?
You need to state the alloy you're trying to melt - an iron alloy melts at a higher temperature than an aluminum alloy, and it melts at a lower temperature than a titanium alloy.

Is an alloy of aluminum has a melting range instead of a melting point is the alloy a compound?
It is a compound. All pure elements have a certain exact melting point.
What is melting temperature for dimes?
one thousand four hundred degrees Fahrenheit or 1,400 degrees F.

What temperature does a brass cartridge melt?
Not all brass is made the same way. The melting point of red brass is 1,832 degrees Fahrenheit. The melting point of yellow brass is 1,660-1,710 degrees Fahrenheit, and the melting point of admiralty brass is 1,650-1,720 degrees Fahrenheit.
What temperature does it have to be to melt a soup can?
Most soup cans are not aluminum- they are tin plated steel. While the exact melting point will vary with the alloy used, it is ABOUT 1,350 degrees Celsius. It is MUCH higher than the melting point of aluminum.

How is beryllium copper alloy made?
Melting of copper and beryllium.
