What is nichrome?
Nichrome is a metal alloy containing nickel and chromium, hence the name, usually 80 percent nickel, 20 percent chromium. A nichrome wire loop is a length of wire from this metal with a little loop twisted into one end and a handle attached to the other. You can stick the loop in a flame and not hurt it. These are used in biology to transfer microorganisms to culture media, and in chemistry to do flame tests.
Will a nichrome wire light up when heated?
Nichrome is a name for a nickel- chromium resistance wire, a nonmagnetic alloy of nickel and chromium. Common alloy is 80% nickel and 20% chromium, by weight. Silvery-grey in colour, corrosion resistant and has a high melting point of 1400 C (2552 F). Due to it's high resistivity and resistance to oxidation at high temperatures, it's widely used in heating elements, such as in hair dryers, electric ovens and toasters. Typically, Nichrome is wound in wire coils to a certain electrical resistance, and current passed through to produce heat. For heating, resistance wire must be stable in air when hot. Nichrome wire forms a protective layer of chromium oxide. Kimber :)

What do you use chromite for?
Chromite is the only ore of chromium, a metal used to induce hardness, toughness and chemical resistance in steel. The alloy produced is known as "stainless steel". When alloyed with iron and nickel it produces a alloy known as "nichrome" which is resitant to high temperatures and used to make heating units, ovens and other appliances. Thin coatings of chromium alloys are used as platings on auto parts, appliances and other products and given the name "chrome plated
What element is combined with nickel to form the stuff used in toasters?
Presumably you're using the word "stuff" to refer to the heating element.... Toaster heating elements generally have wires made of a metal called "Nichrome", which as its name suggests is an alloy of nickel and chromium. Occasionally the alloy will contain some iron as well.
