Alkali metals characteristics

1. They are not found as free
elements in nature
2. They are very reactives
3. They are found only in
compounds
Alkali-Earth metals
characteristics
1. These metals are harder
and denser.
 2. They melt at higher
temperatures than Alkali
metals.
3. They very reactive but not
as alkali metals
4. They are never found
uncombined in nature.
Transition metals
characteristics
1. They are hard, shinny
solids
 2. They melt at higher
temperatures than Alkali
metals.
3. Most are good conductors
of heat and electricity
Metals:
 Elements that are good
conductors of electricity.
Non-Metals:
Elements that do not conduct
electrivity and heat
Metalloids:
 Elements that conduct
electricity and head in a
regular way.
