|
periods (rows), groups (columns)
|
|
metals
|
-elements that tend to lose electrons during chemical change and form positive ions.
-found in the left 2/3 of the table -high electrical and thermal conductivities, high malleability and ductility, metallic luster, solid at room temperature. |
|
non-metals
|
-gain electrons to form negative ions
-found in the right 1/3 of the table -brittle, powdery solids or gases, opposite of metal properties. |
|

|
can go either way as far as gaining or losing electrons.
