The film is a Coronet Instructional Films in collaboration with Therald Moeller, Ph.D. professor of inorganic chemistry at the University of Illinois. “Metals and Non-Metals (Second Edition) title banner (00:15). A building construction (00:32). An Illustration of different non-metals, such as sulfur and oxygen (00:46). An Illustration of different metals, such as silver and magnesium (01:04). An illustrated comparison of the atomic structure of sodium and magnesium (01:25). The periodic table explained based on atomic structures, ionization energy, and electrons (02:31). A building built with aluminum panels depicting the metallic luster property of metals (05:05). A Frasch process facility (05:21). Aluminum being melted (05:27). Melted sulfur (05:37). Aluminum being smoothed into rolls of thin sheets (05:45). Aluminum rolled paper-thin into tinfoil (05:50). Steel is heated and hammered to shape (05:54). A slab of sulfur breaks when pressed (06:01). Metal wire is rolled into spools (06:14). Metal wires used for utility poles due to their high conductivity of electricity (06:26). A frying pan of aluminum is a high conductor of heat (06:33). Steel cables used for heavy lifting on construction sites due to high tensile strength and density (06:49). Illustrations explain the atomic structure which makes non-metals low in density (07:28). Illustrations explain the density and high tensile strength of metals (08:12), and the high conductivity for electricity and heat (09:19). A magnified view of the atoms in platinum (09:53). Periodic table (10:11). The formation of sodium chloride, Na Ca ? NaCl (10:22). An illustration of why metals and non-metals typically react with each other due to the loss and gain of electrons (10:44). Burned sulfur forms sulfur dioxide (10:57). An illustration of how non-metals tend to form covalent bonds (11:13). Liquefied lead and tin are mixed without the effect of a chemical reaction (11:24). An alloy of lead and tin after solidifying as a combined mass (11:43). An illustration of why alloys are formed (11:54). Different alloys, such as brass, stainless steel, and permalloy (12:13). The periodic table (12:23). “The End” on screen (12:50). We encourage viewers to add comments and, especially, to provide additional information about our videos by adding a comment!
