1 stainless steel
2 high speed steel (hss)
if he is talking about wrenches and screwdrivers it might be high carbon steel (over 1020; heat treated hardened steel)
3 1018 or 1020 (carbon steel); might also be called low carbon steel or leaded steel even though lead is frowned upon in todays world.
4 good conductivity (aluminum is good but yields over time)
5 lead
6 galvanizing (coated with zinc or other metal) or paint
7 easily shaped and light weight (not totally sure if that is right)
and they don't rust.
8 gold, silver, or copper; goldsmith or silversmith could also be blacksmith. The industrial process part has me a bit confused, maybe he is looking for "forging"?
9 gold, easily shaped or molded and low reactivity to the skin. reactions to gold are usually from alloys.
10 because of the tensile forces on the teeth of the gears. Think of tensile strength as pulling apart.
