Most elements are ______________________________. The _____________ elements on the left side of the stairstep line on the ________________________________ of Elements are metals. Some physical properties of metals
are ____________________________ (shininess), good conductors of _____________________ and
_________________________________, and can be hammered into _______________ sheets. Non-metals are found
to the _________________ of the stair-step line on the Periodic Table of Elements. The characters of nonmetals are
__________________________________ to those of metals. Nonmetals have a dull ___________________ or
____________________________________. Nonmetals also break easily and are not
____________________________ or ______________________________. Metalloids that are on ______________
sides of the zig-zag line have both properties of metals and nonmetals. Metalloids can be _____________________
or dull and can conduct heat and electricity _________________________ well.
