  1. Metals, Nonmetals, and Metalloids (Vocabulary)

  2. Luster • The way an objectreflects light; • Examples • Shiney • Dull • Metalic • Waxy

  3. Malleability • How well an objectcan be hammered into thin sheets. • Examples • Flattened penny • Aluminum can • Tin foil • Aluminum foil

  4. Conductivity • How well an objectallows electricity to move through.

  5. Ductility • Can be stretched into wire.

  6. Magnetism • Attracted to or repelled by a magnet.

  7. Sonorous • Produces a sound when struck with another object.

  8. Metals • Elements which have physical properties such as good conductivity, shiny luster, malleability and ductility.

  9. Nonmetals • Elements which have physical properties such as no conductivity (an insulator), dull luster, and brittleness (will break).

  10. Metalloids • Elements which can have both properties of metals and nonmetals. • Also may be called a semi-conductor.

  11. Density Formula • Density = mass/volume • D=m/v • (I density)

  12. Volume Formula • V = L x W x H • Volume=length x width x height

  13. Water Displacement • A method used to calculate the volume of an irregular shaped object.
