Why are copper alloys more useful than pure copper?
Pure copper is actually quite useful for certain purposes, such as wiring, but alloys such as brass and bronze are stronger than copper.
Why are copper alloys more useful than copper?
they are more useful because they have more copper inside .
Are alloys genrally weaker of stronger the pure metals?
Most alloys are meant to be stronger: bronze >> copper etc.
What are 2 different alloys and explain what they are made out of?
1 Alloys of magnesium2 Alloys of aluminum3 Alloys of potassium4 Alloys of iron5 Alloys of cobalt6 Alloys of nickel7 Alloys of copper8 Alloys of gallium9 Alloys of silver10 Alloys of tin11 Rare earth alloys12 Alloys of gold13 Alloys of mercury14 Alloys of lead15 Alloys of bismuth16 Alloys of zirconiumBUT I AM SURE WHAT THEY ARE MADE OF I HOPE THIS HELPS :)
What is the Mass Number of Mg2?
Magnesium is very useful for alloys. We use it for make medicines. Mg has a mass number of 24.
Explain why are alloys a useful improvement over pure metals?
Alloys are useful improvement over pure metals because they tend to be stronger.
Why are copper alloys more useful than pure copper?
Pure copper is actually quite useful for certain purposes, such as wiring, but alloys such as brass and bronze are stronger than copper.
Why are copper alloys more useful than copper?
they are more useful because they have more copper inside .
Why some alloys are not widely used despite having useful properties?
Many useful alloys have other alternatives that are either better, more common or even just cheaper than the other
Why are alloys harder than metals?
Alloys are not necessarily harder or stronger than pure metals. For example gallium and aluminum form an alloy that is extremely weak. Many of the alloys we know of are stronger than pure metals because those are the ones we find most useful. In most pure metals, there will be gaps in between atoms. In many alloys we fill in those gaps with some other type of atom, adding extra support.
Why are alloys prepared?
Alloys have useful properties that are not found in the pure metals from which they are mixed. You can make alloys that are stronger, lighter, more corrosion resistant, and so forth, as compared to pure metals at a comparable price range.
What different alloys are there?
There are thousands upon thousands of different known metal alloys, each with their own particular set of properties that make them useful for practical applications.
What are three advantages of some alloys when compared to pure metals?
Alloys are sometimes more useful than pure metals because alloys are stronger - or tougher (toughness is resistance to fracture). Pure metals tend to be softer than alloys and therefore tend to get dented, scratched, or broken/fractured more easily. Alloys are often lower cost than pure metals but not necessarily so. As an example, stainless steel is more expensive than pure iron.
What is the most common type of corrosion found on aluminum and magnesium alloys?
Pitting is the most common type of corrosion found on aluminum and magnesium alloys.
Are alloys genrally weaker of stronger the pure metals?
Most alloys are meant to be stronger: bronze >> copper etc.
