1 Bell Ringer True/False: Elements in the same group have similar properties. List some properties of a metal. (What do metals look like?)

2 Chapter 4 Section 3 Metals

3 Physical Properties of Metals
Shininess- Luster Malleable- can be hammered or rolled into flat sheets and other shapes Ductile- can be stretched or bent without breaking Conductivity- ability of an object to transfer heat or electricity to another object

4 Chemical Properties of Metals
Reactivity- the ease and speed with which an element combines, or reacts, with other elements and compounds

6 Group 1- Alkali Metals Soft, silvery colored metals Very reactive!!!
Group 1- Alkali Metals Soft, silvery colored metals Very reactive!!!

7 Group 2- Alkaline Earth Metals
Silvery-White Metals Fairly reactive Many are found in rocks in the earth’s crust

8 Groups 3-12 Transition Metals
Most are good Conductors of electricity Malleable (easily bent/hammered into wires or sheets)

9 Other Metals

11 Lanthanide Series top row Actinide Series bottom row

12 Comparing the physical properties of metals and nonmetals
Silvery gray color except copper and gold Solid at room temperature except mercury (liquid) Good conductors of heat and electricity Malleable – can be hammered into shapes (thin sheets) Ductile – can be pulled into wires Many different colors Sulfur – yellow Chlorine – green Bromine – orange Iodine - purple Many different states (phases) H, N, O – gas Br – liquid S, C, I – solid Poor conductors of heat and electricity (except carbon) Brittle – breaks when hit
