Chapter 9: 9.70_P_1 (page 340)

(a) List four physical characteristics of a solid metal.

(b) List two chemical characteristics of a metallic element.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Metals are the electropositive elements, donating electrons to form positive ions and becoming stable.

Step by step solution

01

: Physical characteristics of a solid metal: Physical characteristics of a solid metal

  • Metals are malleable and ductile.
  • Metals work well as electrical and heat conductors.
  • Metals can be polished and have a glossy (shiny) appearance.
  • Metals are solids at normal temperature (except mercury, which is liquid).
02

Chemical characteristics of a metallic element

  • Metals are ductile and malleable.
  • Metals combined with nonmetals or other metals to create alloys.
