Physical properties
The characteristics and features that define any material.
How many elements are found naturally on earth? And what can they be classified as?
92,
Metals, Non-Metals and Metalloids
Properties of a metal
Shiny
High Melting point
Good electrical and heat conductivity
Malleable
Ductile
High density
(eg, titanium, aluminum, iron, copper, tungsten, etc.)
Key points of metallic bonding
Atoms held together by electron cloud
Electrons are free to move making metals malleable and good conductors

Conductor
Something that conducts heat and electricity
Insulator
Something that doesn’t conduct heat or electricity
Alloys
A substance created when combining 2 elements (metal on metal or metal on non-metal
Examples of alloys
Brass - Copper and Zinc alloy
Bronze - Copper and Tin alloy
Stainless steel - Iron, Chromium and Nickel alloy
Properties of Non-Metals
Dull in appearance
Low melting and boiling points
Poor electrical and heat conductivity
Brittle
Not ductile
Low density
