6. Low ionization energy and low electronegativity are characteristics that best describe
1) Nonmetals 2) Metals 3) Metalloids 4) Liquids

7. An element has luster, yet it is brittle. This element is most likely a
1) Metalloid 2) Metal 3) Nonmetal 4) Liquid

8. Metalloids tend to have properties resembling
1) Nonmetals only 3) Metals only
2) Both metals and nonmetals 4) Neither a metal nor a nonmetal

9. Compared to atoms of nonmetals, atoms of metallic elements tend to
1) Gain electrons and form negative ions
3) Lose electrons and form negative ions
2) Gain electrons and form positive ions 4) Lose electrons and form positive ions

10. A nonmetallic element is likely to
1) Gain electrons and form negative ions 3) Lose electrons and form negative ions

2) Gain electrons and form positive ions 4) Lose electrons and form positive ions

11. When an atom of a metallic element forms a bond, it
1) Loses electrons, and its atomic radius decreases in size
2) Loses electrons, and its atomic radius increases in size Need Help? Study Book Pg 33 - 35 Set 5 -9
3) Gains electrons, and its atomic radius decreases in size
4) Gains electrons, and its atomic radius increases in size

12. During bonding with a metal, an atom of a nonmetal is likely
1) Loses electrons, and its atomic radius will decreases in size
2) Loses electrons, and its atomic radius will increases in size
3) Gains electrons, and its atomic radius will decreases in size
4) Gains electrons, and its atomic radius will increases in size
