Chemical Combination: Properties of Metals and Non-Metals

The video explains the properties and uses of metals and nonmetals. Metals are good conductors of electricity and heat, can be reshaped, and include examples like aluminum, gold, silver, mercury, iron, cadmium, and magnesium. Aluminum is used for cans and foil, while mercury is used in thermometers. Iron rusts easily, and cadmium is used in batteries. Magnesium is reactive and used in fireworks. Nonmetals, unlike metals, are poor conductors, brittle, and include solids like carbon and sulfur, and gases like hydrogen and nitrogen.
