From the table of mechanical properties of selected materials, list the differences between pure metals and metal alloys.

What will be an ideal response?


? Tungsten has one of the highest densities of pure metals and is higher than any allow form the table. This can be a disadvantage over alloys due to the higher material weight.
? Pure metals typically have better thermal conductivity than alloys, as exhibited by copper. ? The metals, Beryllium and Tungsten, have a higher Young’s modulus, E, as compared with most alloys, hence they are stiffer. This is not universal to metals as lead is very low, and steel as an alloy is fairly high.
? Metal alloys are typically lighter weight than pure metals and can be stronger than metals as exhibited by the ultimate yield strength. ? Metal allows have a higher melting point.
