Properties of metals Your task: Using the materials available you need to figure out the 6 properties that all metal objects have. Hypothesis: If we test various objects then we will determine the properties of metals. Independent variable: 12 different objects Dependent variable: the reaction to tests Control variable: each object will be subjected to the same tests. What you need to do: record data in your note book to figure out the 6 properties that all metal objects have. You will write me a paper on Friday to explain your findings.
