Metals Properties

What this tells you about metals

 

they can hold up heavy loads without breaking

they do not crack or crumble if you hit them with a hammer

they allow an electric current to pass through them easily

they are only liquids if they are very hot

 

Question 5

Metal W displaces metal X from its oxide when heated.

Metal W does NOT react when heated with the oxide of metal Z.

Metal Y reacts faster with water than metal Z.
