What metal is used for making statues?
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)
Give an example of an alloy and tell how it's properties may make it more useful than a pure metal?
An alloy is less reactive and much stronger, instead of using a pure metal it may be reactive and weaker.
Alloys are commonly used in manufacturing. Which of the following is not a reason to use an alloy instead a pure metal?
Cast iron is more brittle than pure iron.
What are alloy brakes?
Alloy just means that the brakes aren't mad out of one pure metal, but rather of a homogenous mixture of metals - an alloy.
Is a metal and an alloy the same thing?
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.
Is alloy or a pure metal?
pure metal
Iron is a pure metal or alloy?
Iron is a pure metal.

Is brass a pure metal?
Brass is a metal alloy made of copper and zinc.
WHAT IS THE elements is a metal?
That metal, if it is a pure elemental metal. Each element that makes up the alloy, if it is a metal alloy.
Alloys are commonly used in manufacturing. Which of the following is not a reason to use an alloy instead a pure metal?
Cast iron is more brittle than pure iron.
Is magnesium a pure metal or an alloy?
Magnesium is not an alloy it is an element and therefore not combined with anything else.
What is the advantage of alloy have over pure metal?
its stronger and is expands
Why does a pure metal have superior conductivity compared to an alloy?
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.
Why a metal alloy behaves differently to a pure metal?
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.
Is Alloys homogeneous or heterogeneous?
Copper is not an alloy. It is a pure metal element.
