Mo6-L1b: Metals and Non-Metals




        Let’s Begin                                                         Substance

                                                                         can be classified as

        Metals and Non-Metals
                                                                 Metals                  Non-Metals
        Everything around us is made of matter.
                                                            which have these           which have these
        These substances are made of elements which all      general physical           general physical

        Each substance has its own physical properties but
        some share similar properties.                      Copper                 Sulfur

                                                               How are metals and non-metals similar and
        Metals are a material that                                            different?
        conducts electricity and
        heat well.

        Non-metals are good
        insulators of heat and
        electricity.
