Properties of Metals, Nonmetals and Metalloids

Learn about the properties of metals, nonmetals and metalloids. This video demonstrates these properties and organizes the them into a table that helps visualize each property.

Properties of Metals:
metallic luster
good conductors of heat and electricity
malleable and ductile
high melting point
most are solids at room temperate

Properties of Nonmetals:
dull, colorless to colorful
poor conductors of heat and electricity
brittle
low melting point
often gases at room temperatures
