| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Which side of the periodic table are metals (the majority of elements) found?* | Left Side |
| Where are the few metalloids located on a periodic table? | Middle Staircase |
| Which group are NOT the best conductors but ARE semi-conductors* | metalloids |
| I am often an invisible gas (so I can't reflect light) and I cannot turn on lights or any electrical device. What am I? | nonmetal |
| I reflect light, can be reshaped without breaking (malleable), and can turn on lights. What am I? | metal |
| I am BRITTLE (breaks easily) and an insulator who stops electricity from flowing. What am I?* | nonmetal |
| I don't get too hot, so some of us are used in electronic devices. What am I? | metalloid |
| I can be drawn into wire (ductile) for electricity, used in pots and pans to hold heat, reshaped without breaking (malleable), and require very HOT temperatures to melt. What am I? | metal |
| If I happen to be solid, I am always brittle (breaks easily). What am I?* | nonmetal |
| Metalloids such as silicon and germanium are metalloids which means they* | have characteristics of both metals and nonmetals |
| ductile | can be stretched into wire |
| brittle | breaks easily |
| malleable | can be bent into different shapes without breaking |
| neon | gas |
| silicon | metalloid |
| carbon | nonmetal |
| dull | does not reflect light (non metal) |
| Most metals, such as iron & tin, tend to melt at* | high temperatures |
| compound | made of different types of atoms |
