The 10-foot length suits a single small project, while the 50-foot length is more economical when you're outfitting several fixtures or need extra length to spare.
For most uses, yes: an anchor sleeve, loop link or end anchor, each available separately, gives the chain something to connect to, since the chain itself doesn't include a fastening point.
It resists tarnishing better than bare brass because it's lacquered and polished, though like any coated finish it can wear thinner with heavy handling over the years.
