1 What are synthetic polymers used for? Objective: ASWDTAT compare the properties of metals and alloys.

2  Usually hard and shiny  All are solids at room temperature except mercury  Are good conductors of heat and electricity  Ductile  Malleable

3  Mixture made of two or more elements that has the properties of metals  At least one of the elements is a metal.

4  Are usually very different than the properties of the elements they are made from.  Gold alloy is used for jewelry (pure gold is much more malleable and soft)  Alloys are used much more than pure metals because they are generally stronger and are less reactive.

6  Many are made by melting metals and mixing them together in carefully measured amounts.  STEEL Made from an iron base

7  Brass  Bronze  Stainless steel  Carbon steel  Sterling silver

8  Objective: ASWDTAT compare the properties of metals and alloys.  What is the difference between a metal and an alloy?
