Mo6-L5a: What is The Periodic Table?







































                              Key Concept                         A metal is an element that is generally shiny. It is
                                                                  easily pulled into wires or hammered into thin sheets.
                       How are Elements Arranged on the
                                Periodic Table?                   A metal is a good conductor of electricity and
                   How does the position of an element on the     thermal energy.
                   periodic table allow you to determined if the
                               element is metal?
