Why do metals have high melting and boiling points?
Metals have high melting and boiling points because in metals there is a very intermolecular force of attraction and it needs a lot of energy to melt or to boil.

What fuel is there in stars?
Hydrogen

Where you should go during a tornado if you are in a house
What is the basement?
200
State the trend in atomic radius of metals on the periodic table.
Atomic radius increases from RIGHT TO LEFT and TOP TO BOTTOM.
200
Why do non-metals gain electrons?
They gain an electron to fill the outermost shell to make it stable and also they don’t give electrons so they take them.

Scientists who study weather
Who are meteorologists?
200
Spinning cloud with a funnel shape
What is a tornado?
200
Where you should go during a tornado if you are in a school or public building
What is the lowest level of the building?
300
Why Are Metals Malleable and Ductile?
The reason why metals are malleable and ductile is due to the fact that their atoms are capable to roll over each other into new shapes without breaking the metallic bond.
300
Why do Covalent bonds form between two non-metals?
They can’t give electrons so they save it and share them between other elements.

What is a wind vane?
300
Large, powerful storm that occurs over large bodies of water
What is a hurricane?
300
April through June
What are the months that the most tornadoes occur?
400
Why do alkali metals react with halogens the most?
The electron configuration is why they react. The Alkali metals have one electron in their outer shell and to complete their outer shell need 7 more, The Halogens have 7 electrons in their outer shells, and need one more to complete the outer shell.
400
Why do non-metals have low melting points?
Non-metals have weak intermolecular forces, so they have less melting point.
400
Measures wind speed
What is an anemometer?

Water overflow that is caused by a large amount of rainfall
What is a flood?

What you should do if you’re in a car during a tornado
What is pull over and get out of the vehicle?
500
Why do alkali metals react rigorously in water?
Alkali Metals give away electron to water and water excepts it easily and forms basic solutions.
500
Why do non-metals tend to form negative ions when they react to form compounds
This occurs when they react with a metal. They tend to form negative ion because it is easier (i.e. it takes less energy) for them to gain 3,2, or 1 electrons than to lose 5,6,7 electrons from there VALENCE shell.
