What is the hardest and cheapest metal on the earth that can conduct electricity?
All metals tend to conduct electricity. For the cheapest but hardest I would suggest high speed steel (HSS). It's not the hardest or the cheapest but is a good compromise.
Do elements tend to undergo chemical reactions that decrease stability?
Elements tend to undergo chemical reactions that increase stability.
What property do all metals on the periodic table share?
Electrons. One of the definitions of a "metal" is that electrons can move somewhat freely through the material, so that the metal can conduct electricity. Non-metals are generally good insulators, and not much electricity can flow through them.
What are the three general characteristics of nonmetals?
The 3 characteristics of a nonmetal's is that they don't conduct heat very well, they are very hard and brittle, can be solids liquids and gasses at room temp where as metals are always solid apart from mercury and they don't conduct electricity, there is 1 exception which is carbon which does conduct electricity but is a metal.
Why do groups among the main -group elements display similar chemical behavior?
The electron configurations of the elements in each main group are regular and consistent:the elements in each group have the same number of valence electrons.
Do materials that conduct heat also tend to conduct electricity?
Usually, yes.
What is it that atoms of materials that conduct electricity best tend to be held together by?
Atoms of materials that conduct electricity best tend to be held together by metallic bonds. This is the attraction between positively charged nuclei in metal atoms and the delocalized electrons in the metal.
What are properties of nonmetal?
Nonmetals tend to have lower melting and boiling points than metals. They tend to be dull and brittle. They do not conduct heat or electricity. They are insulators.
What is the hardest and cheapest metal on the earth that can conduct electricity?
All metals tend to conduct electricity. For the cheapest but hardest I would suggest high speed steel (HSS). It's not the hardest or the cheapest but is a good compromise.
Can elements on the left side of the periodic table tend to bond with elements on the right side?
Yes! The elements on the right side of the periodic table are called metals and are the best conductors of electricity. The elements on the left are called nonmetals and they conduct heat and electricity the worst.
What groups of elements tend to have the strongest election affinity?
The Halogens, Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine.
What is a family or group of elements?
its the elements in a vertical column and they tend to have similar properties (related)
Which groups of elements on the periodic table tend to from ions?
On the periodic table, Groups 4 - 7 tend to form negative ions. These groups tend to gain electrons, thus forming negative ions.
What is a characteristic of BCNO groups?
They are reactive, but selective with elements that they will bond with. Most bond with oxygen and oxygen bonds with itself. Elements in the same families tend to bond with other elements similarly, but there are no hard and fast rules.
Which meterial not conduct the heat?
Non-metals tend to not conduct heat
Elements that are in a vertical column in the periodic table that tend to share similar chemical properties and characteristics are called a?
The vertical elements are called groups. They have similar chemical properties.
What are 3 physical properties most metals have?
They are lustrous, ductile, and malleable, as well as good conductors of heat and electricity, and they tend to have high density.
