Alloy
alloy
A compound is composed of two or more different elements.
nickel
Made from 2 different metals.
None are more metallic. Metallic is a way of describing a metal in general.
yes
stuff that is made up from 2 or more non metals. For example water, oxygen, methane etc
They are called Alkali-earth metals. Group 2 metals contain Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium, Strontium, Barium, Radium.
Most of the elements in the periodic table of elements are metals. Also, most of them are made by nature. Elements with the atomic number of 1-91 are made by nature. Elements with the atomic number of 92-118 are man-made.
The alkali metals are generally more reactive than the alkaline earth metals. They form 1+ ions while the alkaline earth metals form 2+ ions. Alkali metal compounds tend to be more soluble in water than alkaline earth metals.
Alkali and alkaline earth family are metals. They are in group-1 and 2. They have metallic properties.The 2nd family of the periodic table is completely made up of metals. They are called alkaline earth metals. Be,Mg,Ca,Sr,Ba are examples.
Melt 2 or more metals together. Also some alloys contain small amounts of nonmetals to produce certain properties (e.g. silicon).
