1
Based on their location on the periodic table define each of the following elements as metal, nonmetal, or metalloid AND predict some of the properties you would expect to observe. Aluminum, Carbon, Copper, Magnesium, Silicon, Sulfur, & Zinc *** This is to be turned in with your LAB!
2
Lab Prep
3
Metals Alkali Metals Alkaline Earth Metals Transition Metals Metalloids Non - Metals Halogens Noble Gases
4
Solid at room temperature Malleable and ductile (can change shape) Malleable = compress without breaking Ductile = stretch without breaking Good Conductors (thermal & electrical) Luster (means they are shiny!)
5
Share characteristics of both metals & non – metals. Semi – conductors
6
Insulators (poor conductivity) Living organisms are mostly non-metals. (especially C, N, O, H) Most of the compounds in your body contain carbon
15
Hydrochloric acid solution (HCl) is corrosive to eyes and skin. Cupric chloride solution (CuCl 2 ) is toxic if ingested. Avoid contact of all chemicals with eyes and all body tissues. Wear chemical splash goggles and thoroughly wash hands after the experiment.
16
Color Luster Other physical properties: rough, smooth, rocky, flaky, flat, etc. Malleable or brittle DO NOT TOUCH with Hands! Conductivity **** Record in table – BE SPECIFIC
17
Observe reaction with HCl Observe reaction with CuCl 2
18
Using forceps, carefully remove the silicon samples and place them in the beaker labeled Si. For all other samples, dump the contents of the spot plates into the tan pan by the sink. Rinse out the spot plates and forceps with water, and dry them off with paper towels.
