Metals, Nonmetals, & Metalloids

Silicon is a member of this classification and has properties of both metals and non-metals

Three physical properties that a metal has to have to be classified as a metal.....

Boron and Silicon are which classification of elements?

What classification of elements are on the "stair-step" or "zigzag line" of the periodic table?

The elements located along the stair-step.

Find a metal element in your periodic table. Where is it found?

The elements located to the left of the stair-step.

The elements that share properties of both metals and non metals are called:

These elements have luster, are malleable, ductile, & are a good conductor of electrical energy

A column (vertical) on the periodic table is called a-

Elements that are normally in a gas form, that are dull, brittle, and poor conductors.

This term is used for a metal that is able to be drawn out into a thin wire

Usually solid elements that are good conductors, malleable, ductile, and shiny.

Metals & Metalloids typically occur in which state?

Elements that can be lustrous or dull, malleable or brittle, and conductivity varies.

Which type of element is located to the right of the stair-step?

A row (horizontal) on the periodic table is called a-

These elements are nonconductors (does not conduct heat or electricity)

This element is in group 1, but is not a metal

This is the term used for a metal that is able to be hammered out or pressed permanently 

When a substance has a high luster, high malleability/ductility, and a high conductivity is a 

The majority of the periodic table is made up of _______________
