All metals are solids except Mercury. They inhibit properties of ductility , malleability and conductivity.
Ductility is an ability of a metal under tensile stress.
Malleability is an ability to convert metals into a sheet like structure.
Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. i.e. electricity can easily pass through them.
one is its the first colom in the Periodic Table:}
Beryllium, strontium, radium.
Semi-metals (or metalloids) are good semiconductors. They have characteristics of both metals and nonmetals. They also have ranging reactivity levels.
Metalloids, also called semimetals, have the characteristics of both metals and non-metals. Three characterics of metalloids are insulate, conduct electricity, and its elements are Silicon and Boron.
Alloy is the name for at least two different metals melted and blended together. Most of the metals we use are alloys, as their characteristics are usually better than the base metals.
smoking
shiny; hard; not plastic
Three characteristics of bases is that it has a bitter taste, doesn't react well with metals ,and turns red litmus paper blue.
what are the characteristics of metals? metals? non-metals?
Brass, Copper, Steel
Non-metals.
An element that has characteristics of both metals and nonmetals is a metalloid.
metalaoids have both the characteristics of metals and non metals. ex:-boron,germanyum.
They are malleable.
gold, sivler, and copper
They are highly- reactive metals
Metalloids, such as silicon and arsenic, have properties that are intermediate between metals and non-metals. They can exhibit characteristics of both groups, such as semi-conducting properties and varying degrees of metallic and non-metallic behavior.
