Statues and other monumental art can be made from many metals. These include:Bronze (alloy)Brass (alloy)Pewter (alloy)Cast iron (pure metal)Aluminum (pure metal)Stainless steel (alloy)Gold (pure metal)Silver (pure metal)
Alloy just means that the brakes aren't mad out of one pure metal, but rather of a homogenous mixture of metals - an alloy.
Most metals in their pure form, are not very strong. Adding different metals and substances together, dramatically alters the strength of the alloy and makes it useful. Steel itself is an alloy, with Fe being it's major component.
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.
An alloy is less reactive and much stronger, instead of using a pure metal it may be reactive and weaker.
its stronger and is expands
pure metal
Iron is a pure metal.

Brass is a metal alloy made of copper and zinc.
That metal, if it is a pure elemental metal. Each element that makes up the alloy, if it is a metal alloy.
Magnesium is not an alloy it is an element and therefore not combined with anything else.
Copper is a pure metal while kanthal is an alloy. An alloy is a material consists of mixture of two or more elements that are metals and nonmetals. Therefore, kanthal alloy is a metal with addition of some alloy elements such as iron, chromium and aluminum. The addition of alloy elements to pure metals caused additional scattering of the conducting electrons and thus increase the electrical resistivity of pure metals. As the temperature increases, the resistivity of copper increases while the resistivity of kanthal alloy decreases.
A metal alloy behaves differently than a pure metal because the different chemical properties of the metals in an alloy both contribute to the alloy's properties. Certain alloys may be stronger than the original metals because one metal may fill a "gap" in the other's structure. Of course, other properties besides strength are also changed in an alloy.
Copper is not an alloy. It is a pure metal element.
