1 Metals and Nonmetals

2 What are the properties of metals? Good conductors (easily transfer heat and electrical current) Shiny luster Malleable (can be hammered flat without breaking) Ductile (can be drawn into wires)

3 Conductivity What are some examples of good conductors? Why don’t you want to put your tongue on metal outside in the winter?

4 Luster: how something reflects light Metals aren’t always shiny, but often are. Look around the room and pick out 5 things that are metal

5 Malleability

6 Ductile- can be drawn out into long wires

7 Magnetism Some metals are magnetic –iron, cobalt, nickel

8 Solids at room temp. All metals are solid at room temp. with the exception of Mercury (Hg).

9 Metals are reactive

10 Where are metals located on the periodic table?

11 What’s wrong with Steve’s armor and sword?

12 Nonmetals Exactly the opposite of metals! NOT - shiny NOT - ductile NOT – conductive NOT – malleable NOT – magnetic Can be found as solids liquids or gasses Often dull and brittle

13

14 Metalloids Share properties of both metals and nonmetals Examples include silicon, carbon, and sulfur
