Periodic Families crap

can be hammered into sheets (shaped)

malleability

can pass heat and electricity

conductivity

can be stretched into wires

ductility

shine

luster

relatively low melting and boiling points, solids are brittle, low to no electrical conductivity. and most are gases at room temperature

non-metals characteristics

Metals, by definition, are any element that ____ electrons while bonding.

donates/loses

Which element touching the “staircase” is NOT an metalloid?

Al
