Competency
2b
8th – Lesson 1.3
Name: ____________________________________
Period: ____
Predict the properties and interactions of given elements using the
periodic table of the elements. (DOK 2)
SWBAT differentiate between metals, nonmetals, and gases by their
location on the periodic table and their characteristics.
Unit 4 – Chemistry: Metals, Nonmetals, and Gases
Daily Question: Why is the periodic table setup that way?
Key Points on Metals and Nonmetals:
1. Metals are located on the left side of the periodic table.
2. Physical Properties of Metals
a. Shiny and solid at room temperature
 Mercury (Hg) is an exception. It is liquid at room temperature.
b. Can be beaten into thin sheets = malleable
c. Can be stretched into wire = ductile
d. Good conductor of electricity and heat.
 Electricity and heat flow through them easily.
3. Nonmetals are loacted on the right side of the periodic table.
a. Hydrogen (H) is an exception. It is on the left side and is a nonmetal.
4. Physical Properties of Nonmetals
a. NOT shiny and solid or gas at room temperature.
 Bromine (Br) is an exception. It is liquid at room temperature.
b. Solid nonmetals crumble and break apart easily = brittle
c. CANNOT be stretched into wires = nonductile
d. Bad conductor of heat and electricity.
 Electricity and heat DO NOT flow through them easily.
5. Gases are a type of nonmetal
a. The last group (column) of the periodic table are all gases.
b. Hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, and chlorine are the other gases.
Guided Practice
Write M if the element is a metal
or NM if it is a nonmetal. If it is a
gas, write a G.

Key Points on Chemical Changes:
1. There are
major ways to tell
a physical and chemical change:
a. A
change is
, a chemical change is not.
b. A physical change does not form a new substance; a
change
does form a
.
2. There are different signs we can look for to tell if a chemical change is occurring:
a. Change in
(i.e. leaves changing color in the fall)
b.
(i.e. the smell of cookies baking in the oven)
c. Production of
(i.e. burning a sparkler)
d.
of solids or
(i.e. hydrogen gas produced when
an acid is poured onto a metal)
3. When a substance combines with oxygen =
a. Fast oxidation =
(when a substance
). Forms
new substances
b. Slow oxidation =
(when a
combines with oxygen).
Forms new substance.
