1. Metals and NonMetals

2. Two major groups of elements Found on the periodic table
Metals are located to the left of the zigzag line
Nonmetals are located to the right of the zigzag line

3. Physical Properties of Metals
Have Luster -shiny
Are Conductors -heat and electricity move through them easily
Malleable – Can be hammered into a different shape
Ductile – Can be drawn into a wire
High Density – Heavy for their size
Metals are solid, except for mercury

4. Examples of Metal

5. Physical Properties of NonMetals
Dull – not shiny
Nonconductors – heat and electricity do not move through easily
Brittle – break easily
Most nonmetals are gases at room temperature

6. Examples of NonMetals

7. Lets Classify! ________ Silver ______ Iron
________ Oxygen ______ Calcium
_________ Carbon ______ Sulfur
_________ Aluminum _______ Sodium

8. Metalloids Metalloids share properties of both metals and non-metals
Some are ductile, some are not
Some are malleable, some are not
Some are good conductors, some are not
Some are shiny, some are not
