11. Passport Control
Imagine you are working at The Periodic Table Passport Control at the border between metals and non-metals. Only metals are allowed to pass into the left of the periodic table. What questions could you ask elements to decide if they are a metal or non-metal? What would you expect the answer from a metal to be?

12. Properties of Metals
Malleable (can be hammered into shape)
Ductile (can be drawn into a wire)
High melting and boiling point
Good thermal conductors (good conductors of heat)
Good conductors of electricity
Dense (heavy for their size)
Shiny
Sonorous (ding when struck)
Extension: Have a look at your periodic table. Can you think of any metals that don’t follow the rules? Which metals have different properties to those above? Are all their properties different?

13. HWK
Research a metal. You need to find out about the history, how it is extracted, properties and uses.
