What is Luster?

The ability to reflect light

100

Which state of matter has particles that vibrate in place?

Solids

100

Water has a density of 1.00g/cm. If an object has a density of 0.89g/cm, will it sink below or float above the water?

The object will float above the water.

What is malleability?

The ability for something to be hammered into sheets.

200

What type of elements can glow, very good conductors, malleable, and solid?

Rare Earth Elements

What is conductivity?

The ability to conduct heat or electricity

300

Which state of matter has a fixed arrangement of particles and fixed volume?

Solid

300

Substance A (0.54g/cm) floats on top of Substance B (0.89g/cm) inside of a container.

What will happen when I add Substance C (0.33g/cm) to the container with Substance A and Substance B?

Substance C will float above Substance A and B.

300
Describe the conductivity of Non-metals.
Non-Metals are Insulators (block heat & electricity).
