low first ionization energy and low electronegativity

Someone suggested that this answer contained gibberish... But whoever answered it did so correctly. When you start a question with "Which" you should provide choices. If you are looking for "physical" characteristics of metals they might be that metals are lustrous, malleable, ductile, and conductive. But all of these properties stem from the molecular properties of the atoms such as low first ionization energy and low electronegativity. So... not gibberish.

What is a blend of metals that has properties different from the pure metals?

That is called an alloy.


Difference between metals non metals?

There are a number of ways in which a metal can be differientiate a metal from a non-metals, these involve contrasting the properties between metals and non-metals and testing them to distinguish them from one another. Some contrasting properties between metals and non-metals: 1.) Metals conduct electricity whereas non-metals do not. 2.) Metals are shiny whereas non-metals are not. 3.) Metals are malleable whereas non-metals are brittle. 4.) Metals often have a higher boiling/melting point than non-metals. 4.) Metals are hard whereas non metals are not.


What are properties of metal and non-metal?

What are the properties of metals and non-metals? basically :Properties of Metals; *Tensıle strength , *shear strength , *compressıve strength , *ductility,*malleability, *toughness,*corrosion , *electric and thermal conductivity, *brittleness. *Luster * Conductivityand you asked non metals but you have to decide what kind of material what you asked there are 6 main kind of matter like ceramics , composites , carbons , metals&alloys , polymers...=== ===


Elements in the same family have similar what?

Elements in the same family-assuming family means classifications such as non-metals, metals-have similar properties.


What are properties of metaloids?

As their name suggests, metalloids possess characteristics of metals and nonmetals. Typical characteristics of metals include a shiny luster, some degree of malleability and an ability to conduct electricity or heat. Nonmetals are typically nonlustrous, brittle and poor conductors of electricity.

What groups of metals on the periodic table would have the most similar properties?

Metals in the same group on the periodic table tend to have similar properties due to their shared number of valence electrons. Thus, metals in groups 1 (alkali metals) and 2 (alkaline earth metals) would have more similar properties compared to metals in different groups.


What has properties of metals and non metals?

The metalloids have properties of both metals and nonmetals.


How are semi metals related to metals and non metals?

They have properties of metals and non-metals, and also have properties that are around '1/2' of both. An example is silicon, which has a high melting point and is solid (metallic properties). However it is very brittle and it forms an acidic oxide (non-metal). It is a semi-conductor.


Do metals have properties of metallic and non metallic?

No, metalloids have properties of metals and nonmetals.


What are the 2 properties of metal?

Metals conduct heat and electricity, and they have a lustre or shine.


What are the 2 groups that divide the periodic table and their properties?

Metals and non-metals are the two groups. Metal loose electrons. Non metals gain electrons.


What is an element that shares the properties of metals and nonmetals?

An element that has properties of both metals and non-metals is called Metalloid. Example is Germanium.


Solution of 2 metals or a metal and a nonmetal that has the properties of a metal?

probably an alloy or alloid


What is classification for the elements that have properties of both metals and non metals?

Elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals are classified as metalloids. Metalloids have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals, such as being able to conduct electricity but not as effectively as metals. Examples of metalloids include silicon and arsenic.


What are some properties of mixed metals?

There are a number of physical properties that can be present in meted metals. These metals are often very dull in appearance for example.


Most of the chemical elements can be divided into 2 groups what are these 2 groups?

Chemical elements can be divided into metals and non-metals. Metals typically have properties like luster, conductivity, and malleability, while non-metals are generally less shiny, poor conductors, and more brittle.


Does noble gas have some properties of both meals and nonmetals?

Not of metals. Only the properties of non metals
