metals and nonmetals + Transition metals

Question 1

What is a metal

Answer 1

Elements which form positive ions

Question 2

Where are metals found in the periodic table

Answer 2

Found at the left and bottom of periodic table

Question 3

Describe the general properties of metals

Answer 3

strong, malleable, conductors of heat and electricity, high melting and boiling points

Question 4

Why do most metals have similar properties

Answer 4

All metals use metallic bonding which allow them to all have similar properties

Question 5

Why do elements at the bottom of the periodic table lose electrons easier

Answer 5

They have more shells of electrons than the top elements, and outer electrons have a weaker connection to the nucleus
