Non-metals
What are examples of Non - Metals??
(Could at least say 5)
Hydrogen (sometimes considered an alkali metal), Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Phosphorus, Sulfur, Selenium
what is one example of an element that is malleable?
Copper or Gold
What is an example of an element that is Ductile??
Gold, silver, iron, and mercury.
What are examples of elements that have Luster??
Galena, Pyrite, and Graphite.
What are some examples of Metals?
(Could at least say 5)
silver, gold, zinc, copper, palladium, platinum, aluminum, potassium, iron, titanium, calcium, cadmium, thallium, lead, livermorium, and magnesium.
True or False: Non - Metals have many colors.
False, because non-metals are dull and don't have much color.
Can non-metals be Malleable??
No, because they are poor conductors and they cant be hammered down or they will break into many pieces.
Can non-metals be ductile??
No, because they are brittle in nature and will break if they are made into wires.
Can non-metals have luster??
No, because they are Dull by nature and can't reflect light.
True or False: Metals can be malleable.
True, Because that is one of their properties, it allows the metals to be beaten and made into thin sheets.
Which of the following is the strongest non-metal?
a) Nitrogen b) Carbon c) Diamond d) Graphite
c) Diamond
Diamond is the hardest non-metal. The hardness of the diamond depends on the purity.
What is an example of something that is malleable??
Aluminum foil or aluminum wire
What is an example of Ductility??
Metals and or Polymers
What is an example of luster??
Diamonds, other minerals, glass, and pearls.
Which of the following is the strongest Metal:
a) Chlorine b) Hydrogen c) Tungsten d) Calcium
c) Tungsten
Tungsten is known as the strongest known metal on earth.
What is the difference between Good and Bad conductors??
Poor conductors are materials like plastic, paper, rubber, and wood. Good conductors can easily transfer energy from one place to another, such as through a wire.
How does Malleability help the world around us?
It helps by how we can make many things like pipes, and wires, to help with water flow and electricity, and aluminum foil to help store food longer.
How does Ductility help the world around us??
It can help us to have electricity and to be able to have headphones and ESC...
What are some minerals that have luster??
Amethyst, obsidian, quartz, esc...
What are the differences between Metals and Non - Metals??
The ability to conduct electricity because while copper can conduct electricity very well aluminum can't conduct electricity very well.
What are Non-Metals??
A number of elements that have low metallic properties and lack shininess and malleability mostly.
What is Malleable even mean??
Malleable is how metals can be hammered down to become thin sheets of metal.
What is Ductile??
Ductile refers to the way most metals can be stretched into wires.
What is Luster??
Luster refers to the way a metal's surface reflects light. (shiny)
What are Metals?
a solid material that is typically hard, shiny, malleable, fusible, and ductile, with good electrical and thermal conductivity.
