How were bronze age tools made?

Bronze age smiths primarily used casting to form the basic shapes of the tools or items. A mold of the item to be created was made in clay and molten bronze poured in and allowed to cool. After a basic shape was cast and cooled, it could be ground to a more precise shape, and to give it, when appropriate, a sharp edge.

Bronze is more brittle than iron/steel and so is far less subject to the hammering methods used when making items out of iron or steel. Still, some amount of hammering could be, and was, used.

Which factor led to the prosperity and success of the world's early civilizations?

The development of agriculture is the primary driver in the development of ancient civilizations. In a hunter-gatherer society, essentially all labor is dedicated to finding food.

Because of that, people begin to specialize in other jobs, and from there civilization emerges.

Why is bronze better then copper?

Bronze is an alloy of copper and tin (usually, it can be copper & arsenic). The alloying of copper and tin creates new "phases" in the metallic structure.

The copper has one main "phase" in it.

It's like breaking a chocolate chip cookie (representing the bronze alloy) compared to a regular sugar cookie (representing copper). If you try to break the chocolate chip cookie by sliding it in 2 directions (picture placing your hands on the cookie and having one pull straight back while the other pushes forward), the cracks need to work their way around the chocolate chips (which represent the harder phases).

Doing the same thing with a sugar cookie (representing copper), the cracks will form more easily because they do not have to go around the harder chocolate chips (the harder phases).
