Metals in their pure form have certain properties, but by combining them with other metals, their properties can be vastly improved and tailored for different applications. The resistance to corrosion can be improved by adding a certain amount of one metal, or the strength can be improved by adding another (for example).

Why alloys are mixtures but not compounds?
Elements in alloys are bonded by metallic bonding.
Are Metallic solids called alloys are made of one extremely pure element?
Yes... Alloys are combinations of metals and another compound. Some alloys can be made from the mixing of two metals such as copper (Cu) and iron (Fe). Other alloys are made by mixing a metal with a non-metal element. An example of that type of alloy is the extremely strong carbon-steel used in many products. Alloys are defined as homogeneous mixtures.
What type of mixture cannot be filtered?
Gaseous mixtures, metallic alloys,metallic agglomerations are some examples.

Is there zirconium in golf clubs?
It is possible as zirconium alloys (zirconium metallic glasses) or zirconium dioxide ceramics.
Do alloys form an ionic bond or a metallic bond?
Alloys form metallic bonds between the metal atoms.
Why alloys are mixtures but not compounds?
Elements in alloys are bonded by metallic bonding.
Where is a metallic bond found?
A metallic bond exist in metals and alloys.
Does helium have any alloys?
No, helium is a noble gas and does not have any alloys or metallic properties.
Metal compounds made of two or more metallic elements are known as?
Metal compounds made of two or more metallic elements are usually called ALLOYS. However, there are true compounds and these are often known simply as inter-metallic compounds.
What new alloys are being investigated?
metallic alloy

Alloys are defined as homogeneous mixtures.
What is a metal with more than 1 metallic element called?
These are called alloys. Some alloys have a specific name such as steel.
Silvery metallic element used as catalyst and in various alloys?
yttrium
What are metals called with more than one metallic element?
alloys
Can alloys be made on earth?
Alloys are a mixture of two or more metals. Man made alloys include brass and bronze. In nature alloys occur in almost any case there a metallic ore is found. Gold contains traces of lead, nickel ore contains many other metals and copper ore is specifically treated to remove more valuable metals present in the ore.
What the is the effects of corrosion?
Destruction of metallic (especially from iron or iron alloys) structures.
