We experimented on various elements: Mossy Zinc, Aluminum Turnings, Copper Turnings, Activated Carbon, and Iron Fillings. We identified the physical properties based on Color, Luster, Form, and Conductivity and the chemical properties based on reaction to HCl and CuCl2. We were tasked to identify if the given elements were metals or nonmetals. The result of our observation is shown in the image. Based on this, what elements are metals and nonmetals? Iron is known to be a metal however, the iron fillings did not conduct electricity and do not have a metallic luster. Does that mean they are not metal? Is it right to say "corroded" in the CuCl2, when the sample formed rust-like material on its surface?
