Question

your science teacher is cleaning out the storage room and finds unlabeled samples of elements. based on the properties listed in the table, which samples would you classify as metals? sample #4 sample #3 sample #1 sample #2

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Metal Properties

Metals typically are shiny, malleable, ductile, and good conductors of heat/electricity.

Step2: Analyze Table (Assumed Columns: Luster, Malleability, Conductivity)

• Sample #1: If it has luster, malleable, good conductor → Metal.
• Sample #3: If luster, malleable, good conductor → Metal.
• Sample #4: If luster, malleable, good conductor → Metal. (Depends on table details, but common metal traits match these samples likely.)

Answer:

Samples (e.g., Sample #1, Sample #3, Sample #4) that show luster, malleability, and good electrical/thermal conductivity (based on table properties) are classified as metals. (Exact samples depend on table data, but typically those with metallic properties.)
