As star will appear brighter if it is closer to Earth, yes. How bright a star appears depend on how far away it is and the star's actual brightness.
That is one factor. The size of the star is the other.
One reason could be that the brighter star is larger and hotter, emitting more light. Another reason could be that the brighter star is located closer to Earth, making it appear brighter in the sky.
Yes. A star that is closer to us will appear brighter than if it were farther away. However, stars also vary in their actual brightness, so how bright a star appears depends on both how far away it is and how bright really it is.
Sirius appears brighter than Pollux because it is closer to Earth and is a more luminous star. Sirius is also a hot, blue star compared to Pollux, which is a cooler, orange giant star, further contributing to the difference in brightness.
distance from the sun and the age of the star
The star might be closer to the Earth, or it is just brighter than the others. :D

It would look brighter if it is closer to Earth. It is also possible for a small star (small in diameter) to have a higher surface temperature, i.e., to emit more light per square meter of its surface.
Three physical factors that determine a star's brightness are its temperature (hotter stars are brighter), size (larger stars are generally brighter), and distance from Earth (the closer a star is, the brighter it appears).
One star can be brighter than another due to factors such as its size, temperature, and distance from Earth. Larger and hotter stars tend to be brighter, while stars that are closer to Earth appear brighter in the sky. Additionally, the composition of a star's atmosphere and any surrounding objects can also impact its brightness.
It all depends on the luminousity of the star and the relative distance of the observer.
