A house is not usually made from metals.
Metal is a general term for the meatallic elements and alloys made of them.
Gold (and alloys), silver (and alloys), platinum and rarely other metals.
The Beyblade metal rings are usually made of a mix of metal alloys such as aluminum, zinc, and copper. These alloys are chosen for their durability, weight, and ability to withstand the impact and friction during battles.
Yes, it is correct.
An alloy is a type of metal (specifically, it's a solid solution of dissimilar metals). All alloys are metal, but not all metals are alloys ... pure metals (pure gold or pure copper, for example) are not alloys.
Alloys can add strength to a metal
Alloys can help neutralize unwanted properties of a metal
Most silver dollars are made of metal alloys and are notelemental silver.
Ferrous alloys contain iron as the base metal, while non-ferrous alloys do not. Ferrous alloys are typically magnetic and have higher strength but lower corrosion resistance compared to non-ferrous alloys. Non-ferrous alloys, on the other hand, are lighter, have better corrosion resistance, and are often used in applications where magnetic properties are not desirable.
Alloys allow certain metals to be stronger, or lighter, or both
alloys are probably cheaper to make and stonger then an element or a simple metal. Alloys are easier to make. It is difficult to find a simple metal.
Yes... Alloys are combinations of metals and another compound. Some alloys can be made from the mixing of two metals such as copper (Cu) and iron (Fe). Other alloys are made by mixing a metal with a non-metal element. An example of that type of alloy is the extremely strong carbon-steel used in many products. Alloys are defined as homogeneous mixtures.
