1. Metals, Nonmetals, and Metalloids (Vocabulary)

2. Luster  The way it reflects light;  Examples  Shiney  Dull  Metalic  Waxy

3. Malleability  How well it can be hammered into thin sheets.  Examples  Flattened penny  Aluminum can  Tin foil  Aluminum foil

4. Conductivity  How well it allows electricity to move through.

5. Ductility  Can be stretched into wire.

6. Magnetism  Attracted to or repelled by a magnet.

7. Metals  Elements which have physical properties such as good conductivity, shiny luster, malleability and ductility.

8. Nonmetals  Elements which have physical properties such as no conductivity (an insulator), dull luster, and brittleness (will break).

9. Metalloids  Elements which can have both properties of metals and nonmetals.  Also may be called a semi- conductor.
