What is the difference between a metal and a nonmetal? Metals All metals, except 2 are found in solid form at room temperature. 2 Metals They usually have a shiny surface that reflects light. ● This physical property is know as luster. 3 Metals Metals are malleable, which means they can be hammered and pressed into thin sheets known as foils. 4 Metals Metals are ductile, which means they can be drawn (pulled, shaped, molded or bent) into wire. 5 Metals Most metals are hard. 6 Metals All metals are good conductors of heat AND electricity. 7 Metals Metals are usually heavy, dense and sink in water. 9 Can be found in 3 different states of matter at room temperature: 1. Solid 2. Liquid 3. Gas Nonmetals 10 Some may reflect light, but generally do not have luster. Nonmetals 11 Nonmetals are less malleable and MORE brittle (break easily). Nonmetals 12 Nonmetals are not ductile. Nonmetals 13 Most nonmetals do NOT conduct heat or electricity very well. Wood, rubber and glass are used as insulators. Nonmetals 14 Many nonmetals are typically lighter, have a low density and float in water. Nonmetals 15 Metalloids Semiconductors that conduct heat and electricity better than nonmetals, but not as well as metals. 16 Presentation design This presentation uses the following typographies and colors: ◎ Titles: Nixie One ◎ Body copy: Varela Round You can download the fonts on these pages: https://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/nixie-one https://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/varela-round Yellow #f8bb00 Orange #ed4a00 Fucsia #e8004c Blue #00acc3 Aqua #00d1c6 Lime #bbcd00 Green #65bb48 Gray #617a86 Light Gray #a1becc You don’t need to keep this slide in your presentation.
