x + y = 100
0.10x + 0.45 y =25
eliminate
x + y = 100
x + 4.5 y = 250
-3.5 y = -150
y = 42.85
x = 57.15
hope this helps
Metals are located on the left of the periodic table, and nonmetals are located on the upper right.
Explanation: Metals: Lustrous (shiny)
Good conductors of heat and electricity.
High melting point.
High density (heavy for their size)
Malleable (can be hammered)
Ductile (can be drawn into wires)
Usually solid at room temperature (an exception is mercury)
Opaque as a thin sheet (can't see through metals)
Nonmetals: High ionization energies.
High electronegativities.
Poor thermal conductors.
Poor electrical conductors.
Brittle solids—not malleable or ductile.
Little or no metallic luster.
Gain electrons easily.
Dull, not metallic-shiny, although they may be colorful
