Properties of Metals
An element is a substance made up of one kind of atom; it cannot be separated into simpler parts. For example, the element helium (think hot-air balloons) is made up exclusively of helium atoms.
Elements are generally classified as metals or nonmetals (although some elements have characteristics of both; these are called metalloids).
Three properties of metals are:
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. (You can test this using some household items. Keep reading to find out how!)
