metals and nonmetals-year 7 project
In a group of these metals and nonmetals Bromine, Cardon, Chlorine, Copper, Iron, Mercury, Nickel, Selenium and Sulphur which substances would be ''difficult to group''. I was thinking mercury being a liquid metal and cardon being a non metal which conducts electricity. Would you include any others? Nothing to heavy as its only year 7, thanks
