metals
Columns of the periodic table, which have similar chemical properties are known as a
group
The most chemically inactive group of elements are the
noble gases
Insulation around an electric outlet is made out of
non metals
Silvery solids with low densities and low melting points found in Group 1 of the periodic table are
alkali metals
Elements that are gases or brittle solids and poor conductors of heat and electricity are
non metals
The representative groups are groups
1,2,13,18.
A mixture is
