Having the right equipment for metalworking keeps your business competitive in your sector. With Kennametal inserts, you have access to the correct performance inserts for milling and cutting, including both positive and negative inserts. Our high-performance inserts give you precise and low-vibration cutting, allowing you to achieve true and consistent results every time.

In this lab activity, students will be asked to observe and then test the properties of several different elements. In their observations they will be looking for the physical state, whether it is shiny or dull, and whether it appears malleable or brittle. For some of the elements they will also test the conductivity, malleability, and reactivity with dilute acid. From their data, they classify each element as a metal, a non-metal or a metalloid. There results will be color coded on a periodic table (e.g. Blue for metals, yellow for non-metals, and green for metalloids). They will use this to determine trends for metallic properties of the elements.
