metals as in elements. or like zinc. or something. from my knowledge, magnets, other metals (sometimes), gas, && liquid.
Three types of metals stick to magnets. They are iron, cobalt, and nickel. Really all substances respond to magnets but only these three metals respond strongly enough to stick.
Magnetism in metals is due to electrons flowing in the same direction, causing a magnetic field. Not all metals produce a magnetic field.
Many metals reacts with acids forming salts.
Alkali metals such as sodium, potassium, and lithium typically do not respond to the borax bead test. This is because their complexes with boron are colorless and difficult to detect.
Ferrous metals, such as: Iron (Fe) Cobalt (Co) and some alloys respond to magnetism. Aluminum responds to electromagnetic eddy currents.
Iron (Fe), Nickel (Ni), Cobalt (Co) and some alloys are the only metals that respond to magnetism.
It can be either one, depending on your meaning. You would "respond to" a question or comment directed at you. You would "respond for" someone else who cannot respond for themselves.
what are the characteristics of metals? metals? non-metals?
Non-metals do not have freely moving electrons in their outer shell to create a magnetic field. In order to be attracted by a magnet, a material must have unpaired electrons that can align with an external magnetic field. Non-metals lack this property, which is why they do not respond to magnets.
metals
Metals are used in an electroscope because they are good conductors of electricity. This allows the electroscope to easily detect and respond to electric charges. Metal materials also provide durability and stability to the electroscope's components.
No, aluminum nails are not attracted to magnets. Aluminum is a non-ferrous metal, which means it does not have magnetic properties like ferrous metals such as iron or steel. Therefore, aluminum nails will not respond to a magnet.
