Some properties of metals that may be difficult to test include their resistance to corrosion, their ability to conduct heat and electricity, as well as their ductility and malleability. These properties are often evaluated through specific tests, such as exposure to certain environments for measuring corrosion resistance, or conducting electrical and thermal conductivity tests.
What else can I help you with?
A homogeneous mixture of metals with other metals nonmetals or metalloids that has metallic properties?
alloy
Is being good energy conductors a chemical property of some metals?
it would more than likely be classed as a physical property of metals, along with colour and appearance etc. chemical properties would be more like the atomic number or the reactivity etc
Are alkali metals electro-positive?
Yes they are!even though they are very soft, reactive and not as widely used as much as transition metals eg. in construction they still have other metallic properties, such as metallic bonding.Yes all alkali metals are metals.
When metal react with metal the result is?
When metals react with other metals, they can form metal alloys. These alloys have different properties compared to the pure metals and are often stronger and more resistant to corrosion. Mixing metals together can also alter their physical and chemical properties.
Why were alchemists interested in mercury?
Alchemists believed that mercury held transformative properties and could be used in the process of transmuting base metals into noble metals like gold. They thought that mercury possessed spiritual qualities and symbolic significance in their quest for enlightenment and the Philosopher's Stone.
What properties of metals allow them to be recycled?
they can be melted, mixed with other metals(alloys)
A homogeneous mixture of metals with other metals nonmetals or metalloids that has metallic properties?
alloy
How does alloying change the properties of metals?
Because they may fuse, block or displace other metals! :)
How can the properties of of iron be changed?
By combining it with other metals to create an alloy.
What other metals have the same properties as gold?
Really none. That is why gold is so valuable. While other metals have similar properties to gold, none of them have the exact same. The closest metals to gold in terms of its properties are silver, platinum and palladium.
What type of properties describe how one material acts on other materials?
Chemical Properties.
What side of a periodic table of elements has metallic properties?
the groups of alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, transition metals, and other metal are all metals and some of the metalloids have metallic properties and the alkali, alkaline are on the left, transition metals are in the middle, other metals are located directly next to the transition metals and the metalloids are next to the other metals, and then you have halogens and Nobel gases, Lanthanides and Actinides which are all gases and rare earth.
Is being good energy conductors a chemical property of some metals?

Why might alchemists have though they could turn other metals into gold?
Alchemists believed in the concept of transmutation, the ability to transform one substance into another. They thought that with the right combination of ingredients and processes, they could achieve this transformation with metals. Gold was considered the most perfect and pure metal, so alchemists sought to replicate its properties in other metals through their experiments.
An unkown element is shiny and is found to be a good conductor of electircity what other properties would you predict for it?
Based on the properties you described, the unknown element is likely a metal. Metals are typically shiny and good conductors of electricity. You could also predict that it is likely malleable and ductile, as these are common properties of metals.
How can you prove that sodium is a metal?
Sodium is a metal based on its physical properties - it is shiny, malleable, ductile, and a good conductor of electricity. Additionally, it exhibits characteristic metallic bonding properties, such as forming cations in chemical reactions. Sodium also falls on the left side of the periodic table with other metals and shares similar properties with other metals in that group.
Are alkali metals electro-positive?
Yes they are!even though they are very soft, reactive and not as widely used as much as transition metals eg. in construction they still have other metallic properties, such as metallic bonding.Yes all alkali metals are metals.
