Metal Characteristic: Example: Nonmetal Characteristic: Example: What do you know about different elements?
Physical properties : properties that can be determined without altering the chemical makeup of the material. Color, density, odor, melting point, boiling point, bendable etc. Material remains the same after you test for certain physical properties. A.1 PROPERTIES MAKE THE DIFFERENCE
Kind of chemical changes it undergoes. Substance doesn’t stay the same after a chemical change. Ex. Rusting of iron, burning etc. Combustion – burning, involves oxygen. Chemical properties
1.Pure metals have a high luster. 2.Surfaces of some metals become dull when exposed to air 3.Nitrogen gas, forms nitrogen oxides at the high temperatures of an operating automobile engine. 4.Milk turns sour if left too long at room temperature 5.Diamonds are hard enough to be used as a coating for drill bits 6.Metals are ductile 7.Bread rises 8.Argon is used to fill light bulbs to prevent the metal filament wire inside the bulb from being destroyed through oxidation. 9.Metals conduct heat and electricity. Physical or chemical?
What is a concern when manufacturing coins? Cost, durability, reactivity of metal A.3 properties matter: designing the penny
1980s copper became too expensive to be used as the primary metal in pennies zinc-plated steel pennies., corroded easily 1982 zinc replaced copper, copper coating. More chemically reactive. 97.5% zinc History of the penny
Metals – conducts electricity & heat, malleable, ductile Nonmetals – brittle, bad conductors Metalloids (properties of metals and nonmetals) A.4 The Chemical Elements
Mendeleev – arranged according to atomic mass Mosley – arranged according to atomic number Periodicity Pg119 Atomic number - #protons Atomic mass - #protons + #neutrons isotopes The Periodic Table
Alkali Alkali earth Transition metals Metalloids Halogens Noble gases Lanthanides actinides Groups
Arrangement of electrons Metals tend to give electrons Results in cations What determines properties?

Section A Quiz
Sources and uses of metals: coin, clothing, engines, fertilizer… Earth’s composition Atmosphere – N, O, Ar, He, Ne, C Hydrosphere – water, salt, Mg, S, Ca Lithosphere – silicates, coal, oil, carbonates, oxides, sulfides, Mantle – silicates, Mg, Fe Core – Fe, Ni SecB Earth’s Mineral Resources
Lithosphere – solid part, chemical resources, petroleum, ore Ore – naturally occurring rock or mineral that can be mined Minerals – naturally occurring solid compounds containing the element or group of elements of interest. Mines:
Africa – chromium 95%, cobalt 52%, manganese 80% China – Aluminum 17% Pg. 136 ques.1-5 World’s Mines
Ductility – drawn into wires Brass, bronze Alloy – mixture of metals melted together Not very corrosive Element handbook worksheet Copper
