Nonmetals are not malleable or ductile (they will shatter). Nonmetals are brittle (they break easily). Nonmetals are dull (are not shiny). Nonmetals are insulators (can NOT transfer heat and electricity).]]> 2018-04-26 17:24:15 UTC https://padlet.com/barilisa000/ea4gjx3jifhg/wish/255755545 barilisa000 https://padlet.com/barilisa000/ea4gjx3jifhg/wish/255847929 Metalloids have some properties of metals and some properties on non-metals, some are also called semiconductors (can carry an electrical charge under certain conditions). Metalloids are solid and at room temperature, can be both shiny or dull, brittle (not ductile).]]> 2018-04-26 22:18:21 UTC https://padlet.com/barilisa000/ea4gjx3jifhg/wish/255847929 barilisa000 https://padlet.com/barilisa000/ea4gjx3jifhg/wish/255851621 Copper is a metal, because it is a conductor, it's malleable, it's ductile, and its luster. Copper is a reddish-gold metal that is easily worked.
Copper is useful in our everyday lives, because it is used for pennies. It is also a very good conductor and is ductile, so it is used for wires.]]> 2018-04-26 22:48:52 UTC https://padlet.com/barilisa000/ea4gjx3jifhg/wish/255851621 barilisa000 https://padlet.com/barilisa000/ea4gjx3jifhg/wish/255854740 Oxygen is a Non-metal, because it is not malleable, or ductile. It is brittle, dull, and an insulator. Oxygen is a colourless, odourless gas.
Oxygen is VERY useful for all living organisms, because we need it to breath.
Without oxygen we could DIE.
Most oxygen comes from tiny ocean plants called phytoplankton.]]> 2018-04-26 23:18:31 UTC https://padlet.com/barilisa000/ea4gjx3jifhg/wish/255854740 barilisa000 https://padlet.com/barilisa000/ea4gjx3jifhg/wish/255860947 Silicon is a metalloid, because it is a semiconductor, is solid and at room temperature, can be both shiny or dull, and is brittle.
Silicon is a solid with a blue-grey metallic sheen.
Silicon is used to make concrete and cement. It is present in pottery, enamels and high-temperature ceramics, also used extensively as a semiconductor in solid state devices in the computer and microelectronics industries. As well as used in sealants, adhesives, lubricants, medicine, cooking utensils, and thermal and electrical insulation.]]> 2018-04-27 00:15:04 UTC https://padlet.com/barilisa000/ea4gjx3jifhg/wish/255860947
