Question
Chapter 21, Problem 21.25QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The properties of metals have to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Metals:
- Chemical elements are classifies into three types, they are metals, metalloids, and non-metals.
- Among these three types of chemical elements, metals are the major usage we use in our daily life such as gold, silver, aluminium, iron etc.,
- These metals are separated from their corresponding ores. Ores are naturally occurring in earth.
- Metals have chemical properties and physical properties and from these properties we can easily convert it into various forms for our daily usage.
