Give the properties of metal
Answers
Explanation:
Metals are lustrous, malleable, ductile, good conductors of heat and electricity. Other properties include: State: Metals are solids at room temperature with the exception of mercury, which is liquid at room temperature (Gallium is liquid on hot days).
Physical & Chemical Properties of Elements: Metals ... Metals are dense, shiny, good conductors of heat and electricity, and easily lose electrons in chemical reactions. Nonmetals are not dense, dull, do not conduct heat and electricity, and tend to gain electrons. Metalloids are elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals.
Explanation:
Luster: Metals are shiny when cut, scratched, or polished.
Malleability: Metals are strong but malleable, which means that they can be easily bent or shaped. For centuries, smiths have been able to shape metal objects by heating metal and pounding it with a hammer. If they tried this with nonmetals, the material would shatter! Most metals are also ductile, which means they can be drawn out to make wire.
Conductivity: Metals are excellent conductors of electricity and heat. Because they are also ductile, they are ideal for electrical wiring.
Additional Properties of Metals
High melting point: Most metals have high melting points and all except mercury are solid at room temperature.
Sonorous: Metals often make a ringing sound when hit.
Reactivity: Some metals will undergo a chemical change (reaction), by themselves or with other elements, and release energy.
