Metals

1. Malleable (easily shaped)

2. Has Luster (Shiny)

3. Good conductor of heat

4. Good conductor of electricity

5. Some metals are magnetic

Non-metals

1. Brittle ( broken easily)

2. No Luster (not shiny)

3. Poor conductor of heat

4. Poor conductor of electricity

5. No nonmetals are magnetic

Metalloids

1. The properties of metalloids are between metals and nonmetals.

2. Most like nonmetals- both chemically and physically. (Brittle, poor heat conductor)

3. They conduct electricity, but not as well as metals (semiconductors).
