Term | Definition |
---|---|
Metals | Solid at Room Temperature, Shiny Luster, Ductile, Malleable, Good Conductor, High Density, High Melting Point. |
Non-Metals | No Luster, Poor Conductors, Brittle, Not Ductile, Not Malleable, Low Density, Low Melting Point. |
Alkali Metals | Highly Reactive Metals-So reactive they are never found uncombined in nature-Metals soft enough to be cut with a butter knife. |
Alkaline Earth Metals | Fairly Reactive Metals--Serve as important minerals for our body |
Transition Metals | Less Reactive Metals-Hard, Dense Metals-Also used as oxides to make points and pigments |
Noble Gases | Nonreactive Metals- Do not react naturally-Always found on their own in Nature-Used in "neon" signs, Balloons, and Light Bulbs |
