On this slide there are seven elements to be identified as metal or non-metal. Sb Sb I I

4. Metals and non-metals in the periodic table
The periodic table is a list of all the known elements which are arranged according to the similarities in their properties.
Metals are on the
left and in the centre.
Non-metals are mostly on the right. Xe
What type of elements are between metals and non-metals?

5. Metals and Non - Metals
On your copy of the periodic table, colour in the metals and the non – metals

6. Metal, non-metal or metalloid?
scandium (Sc)
francium (Fr)
cobalt (Co)
krypton (Kr)
silicon (Si)
metal
non-metal
metalloid
metal
metal
Which side are the metals on?
Which side are the non-metals on?
What are
metalloids? H Li Na K Rb Cs Fr Be Sc Ti Mg V Cr Mn Fe Co Ni Cu Zn Ga Ge Se Br Ca Kr Y Zr Nb Mo Tc Ru Pd Ag Cd In Sn Sb Sr Te Rh Ba Hf Ta W Re Os Ir Au Hg Tl Pb Bi Po La At Pt Ra Rf Db Sg Bh Hs Mt ? Ac Al P N O S Cl F Ne Ar Rn I Si Xe He B C As
On this slide there are five elements to be identified as metal, non-metal or metalloid.
Metals are on the left and in the centre.
Metalloids sometimes behave like metals and
sometimes like non-metals.
Non-metals are mostly
on the right.

7. Can you name the following ….
Common metals
Common non metals Cu Zn Al Fe Ag Au C O S H N

8. Properties of Metals
You are going to be testing a series of metals to find out what properties a metal has.
Copy and complete the following table:
Name of Metal
Is it shiny or dull?
Can you bend it?
Does it conduct
Electricity?
Does if feel cold?
Can you stretch it?
Melting point? High or low

9. Look at your results. What do all the metals have in common?
Conclusion
Look at your results. What do all the metals have in common?
The things they have in common are called their ‘properties’
What do you think the properties of the non-metals are?

10. What are the properties of metals?
malleable
(easy to bend)
Shiny (lustrous)
solid
sonorous
(makes a sound)
good conductor of electricity
Properties of metals
dense
strong
high melting point
good conductor of heat
Point out the metal exceptions which do not display these properties, e.g. mercury, sodium.
ductile
(can be streched into wires)
high boiling point
Do all metals have these properties?

11. Using metals
Can all metals do the same job?.

12. Applications of metals
