Alloying is a very good method of improving the properties of metals. Most of the metallic objects (cooking utensils, ornaments, coins, guns, etc.) are made up of alloys. It is because pure metals are generally very soft and have low melting points. For example, iron is the most widely used metal, but it is never used in its pure form to make cooking pans because it is very soft in its purest form, it is corrosive and easily stretches when hot.
