PART B Research uses of metals in society

Research the uses of metals in society, with particular emphasis on the ones you have investigated.

You will have notes or copies of the source material available in class, as directed by your teacher, so you can complete this work. You may also source material yourself.

Provide references for any materials you source yourself.

Report

Use your notes of the information you have gathered to write a report of your findings about implications of the physical and chemical properties of metals for their specific uses in society.

In your report, FOR AT LEAST TWO METALS;

· discuss in detail the specific uses in society of the metals you have studied

· explain in detail how the physical and chemical properties of the metals make them suitable for these uses and/or unsuitable for other uses

· compare and contrast the different metals based on their properties, to further elaborate on your explanations.

Ensure your explanations consistently use chemistry vocabulary, symbols, and conventions including writing balanced symbol equations.

Your teacher will provide further details of what you have to do before you begin.
