Brass is harder than some metals like aluminum and copper, but not as hard as others like steel or titanium.
Brass is preferred over aluminum in ammunition manufacturing due to its superior strength, malleability, and resistance to corrosion. Brass casings are also easier to reload and tend to provide better overall performance and reliability compared to aluminum casings.
Aluminium is a better conductor than brass, it heats up first! We did it in a science experiment, you can trust this answer!!
The Mohs hardness of brass is around 3-4. This means it is softer than materials like steel and iron, but harder than materials like gold and silver.
Brass is a metal alloy of mostly copper & zinc.Bronze is an alloy of mostly copper & tin.Bronze is often redder, stronger, more resistant to corrosion, harder and the making of bronze is much older than brass.

Yes.
Yes, marble is harder than brass. Marble has a Mohs hardness of about 3, while brass has a Mohs hardness of about 3 to 4. Therefore, marble is generally more resistant to scratching and abrasion compared to brass.
It depends on the alloy and temper of each material. Beryllium copper alloys are harder than the softest aluminum alloys, and high-strength aluminum alloys are harder than pure copper (which is quite soft). And almost every metal is harder than lead, except a few such as gold.
What kind of brass in what form? The density of the aluminum also matters, so it could scratch if both materials were slightly thick. The aluminum would have to be a little flimsier than the brass.

Alloys are harder than the components.
Brass is harder than copper because it is an alloy made of copper and zinc, which gives it enhanced strength and durability compared to pure copper. The addition of zinc to copper alters its crystalline structure, making it more resistant to deformation and wear.
Typically copper, but it is much harder than copper.
Even though brass is a copper alloy, generally made up of about 95% copper and 5% zinc, copper is a softer metal. Copper has a higher heat capacity though, meaning than brass heats up more quickly than copper.
Yes, brass is generally harder than silver. Brass is an alloy made of copper and zinc, which gives it increased hardness compared to pure silver. Silver is a soft metal that is more malleable and ductile than brass.
Aluminum is slightly harder than gold. In a way yes and in a way NO. It depends on the purity and the age of both metals. Pure gold - 24 carats is far softer than aluminum or aluminium, whereas 9 carat gold which is an alloy of gold and other metals may be harder. You also need to consider what happens to aluminum when it is exposed to the air and over time will deteriorate as it is chemically corroded and ages. It softens and loses its strength. Gold does not corrode, it does not deteriorate - it is classed as a noble metal. So long term gold is stronger, harder than aluminum. Aluminum is used in overhead power lines, airplanes etc., gold would be more efficient at transmitting electricity, but it would be useless to construct an airplane.
