Transcript of Metals and non metals
Periodic Table
Metals
Properties of MetalsMetals appear to the left of the dark ziz-zag line
on the periodic table. Most metals are solid at room temperature.
Properties of MetalsMetals have
luster. This
means they are
shiny
Properties of Metals
Ductilemetals can be
drawn into wire.
Properties of MetalsMalleable
metals can
be hammered
into sheets
Properties of Metals
Metals have a high melting point. They
are also very dense.
Properties of MetalsConductors
Metals are
good
conductors of electricity and
heat
Nonmetals
Properties of Nonmetals
Nonmetals occur to the right of the dark zig-zag on the periodic table. Although Hydrogen is in family 1, it
is also a nonmetal. Many nonmetals are gases at room temperature.
Properties of Nonmetals
Nonmetals do
not have
luster; they aredull.
Properties of Nonmetals
BrittleNonmetals are
brittle so they
break easily. This means nonmetals ARE NOT ductile or
malleable.
Properties of Nonmetals
Nonmetals
have low
density.
Properties of Nonmetals
They also have a low melting point. This is why they are poor conductors of
heat and electricity.
Metalloids
Properties of Metalloids
Metalloids can be found clustered around the
dark zig-zag line that separates metals and
nonmetals.
Properties of Metalloids
Metalloids (metal-
like) have
properties of both
metals and
nonmetals.
Properties of Metalloids
Metalloids are solids
that can be
shiny or dull.
Properties of Metalloids
They conduct
electricity and
heat better than
nonmetals but not
as well as metals.
