Directions: METALS/ METALLOIDS/ NONMETALS - RCSD
Directions: 1. Pick three different colors. Each color will signify the three parts of the Periodic Table… the METALS, METALLOIDS, and NONMETALS. 2. Color the three parts of the Periodic Table. 3. Fill in the KEY to match your Periodic Table. 4. Fold in half and glue to a page in your journal.

•Are silver-grey in color •Are solids @ room temperature, except for Mercury •Reflect light when polished (luster) •Can be bent or hammered flat (malleable) •Can be drawn into wire (ductile) •Are strong and resist bending and breaking (tensile strength) •Have a characteristic sound when struck with an object (sonorous) •Have high melting and boiling points •Are good conductors of heat and electricity •Have high densities (heavy weight for their size) •Are attracted to a magnet
NONMETALS usually… •Exist as solids, liquids, or gases @ room temperature •Do not reflect light well (no luster) •Are brittle •Cannot be hammered flat (not malleable) •Cannot be drawn into a wire (not ductile) •Are soft and bend or break easily (low tensile strength) •Don’t have a characteristic sound when struck with an object (not sonorous) •Have low melting and boiling points •Are poor conductors of heat and electricity •Have low densities (light weight for their size) •Are not attracted to a magnet
METALLOIDS usually… •Are generally solids •Can be shiny or dull (luster) •May or may not be hammered flat (malleable) •May or may not be drawn into wire (ductile) •May or may not be brittle •Conduct heat and electricity better than nonmetals, but not as well as metals •Tend to make good semiconductors •Have melting and boiling points that are widely varied •Have densities that are widely varied
