One of the properties that makes copper, Cu, useful for household wiring is its ability to conduct electricity. Which other element is most likely to conduct electricity?
Which element group is typically shiny and good at conducting heat and electricity?
Which characteristic does not typically apply to nonmetals on the periodic table?
What two properties are typically associated with metals?
Rank the folowing physical properties as Metals, Nonmetals or Metalloids. NO OPTION WILL BE USED TWICE. Pick whatever the BEST answer is for each physical property.
Ductile
Gas at room temperature
High Electronegativity (only High)
Shiny with good luster
Good Conductor
Dull with poor luster
Malleable
A brittle solid at room temperature
Roughly 7 elements on the periodic table
Low Electronegativity
Good Insulator
Semi-conductor
Metals
Nonmetals
Metalloids
Which two options best describe the appearance of most metals?
Means a substance can be pounded or hammered into thin sheets or molded into shapes.
The measure of ease at which an electric charge or heat can pass through a material
Ability of an object to reflect light
The tendency of a material to fracture or shatter under pressure
the way most metals can be stretched into a wire
A material that keeps electricity or heat (or cold) from transferring
