  2. Astatine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astatine

    Astatine is sometimes described as probably being a black solid (assuming it follows this trend), or as having a metallic appearance (if it is a metalloid or a metal). [ 14 ] [ 15 ] [ 16 ] Astatine sublimes less readily than iodine, having a lower vapor pressure . [ 8 ]

  3. Periodic trends - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_trends

    The periodic trends in properties of elements. In chemistry, periodic trends are specific patterns present in the periodic table that illustrate different aspects of certain elements when grouped by period and/or group. They were discovered by the Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev in 1863.

  4. Metallic mean - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metallic_mean

    Since the inverse of a metallic mean is less than 1, this formula implies that the quotient of two consecutive elements of such a sequence tends to the metallic mean, when k tends to the infinity. For example, if n = 1 , {\displaystyle n=1,} S n {\displaystyle S_{n}} is the golden ratio .

  5. Alkali metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkali_metal

    The physical and chemical properties of the alkali metals can be readily explained by their having an ns 1 valence electron configuration, which results in weak metallic bonding. Hence, all the alkali metals are soft and have low densities , [ 5 ] melting [ 5 ] and boiling points , [ 5 ] as well as heats of sublimation , vaporisation , and ...

  6. Reactivity series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactivity_series

    electropositive metals with values between 1.4 and 1.9; and electronegative metals with values between 1.9 and 2.54. From the image, the group 1–2 metals and the lanthanides and actinides are very electropositive to electropositive; the transition metals in groups 3 to 12 are very electropositive to electronegative; and the post-transition ...

  7. Properties of metals, metalloids and nonmetals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_metals...

    The chemical elements can be broadly divided into metals, metalloids, and nonmetals according to their shared physical and chemical properties.All elemental metals have a shiny appearance (at least when freshly polished); are good conductors of heat and electricity; form alloys with other metallic elements; and have at least one basic oxide.

  9. Metallic bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metallic_bonding

    'Nonmolecular' would perhaps be a better term. Metallic bonding is mostly non-polar, because even in alloys there is little difference among the electronegativities of the atoms participating in the bonding interaction (and, in pure elemental metals, none at all). Thus, metallic bonding is an extremely delocalized communal form of covalent bonding.
