Why is alloying necessary?
Because it improves the material properties of the resulting metal.
What is an example of an alloy and tel how its properties may be more useful that a pure metal?
its' in the book! da :)
What two properties of the metal tungsten that make it good material for the filament?
Magnesium and Titanium.

How the strength of the metal differs?
Each metal has its own properties. The Young's Modulus of a material is an example of this and is a ratio of stress over strain. These values give an indication of material strength, the cause of these differences is down to atomic level bonding and atomic interactions which influence the larger scale properties of the metal.
What are properties of mentals that are useful?
"Mentals"? I think you mean "Metals". There are several useful properties in metals. Its hardness and density are useful in building and constructing. Its smooth nonporous surface is useful in many different ways, its flexibility and endurance are great for making earth quake proof buildings and bridges.Look at the San Francisco bridge. Exponentially, there are no limit to the useful properties of metal. All you have to do is look it up.
Why do you use an alloy?
An alloy would be useful if the material properties of the alloy, such as resistance to corrosion, are better than that of the metal that is normally used. It would be used in a case where operating conditions dictate using a material properties suited to its use. For instance stainless steel has chromium added to it which forms a thin oxide layer which is quickly replenished when scratched, but is not brittle like iron oxide (rust).
What is a meant by the words properties of materials?
Properties of the material help decide if the material should be used or not. Below are key properties to think about when selecting a material for use:1)Malleability - The ability to reshape a material (e.g metal, plastic) without cracking.2)Conductivity - The ability for a material to conduct electricity.3) Hardness - I'm sure you can guess what this is! (The ability of a material to resist scratching or wearing)
