Hint	Answer	% Correct
Colorless, odorless and almost completely nonreactive gases	Noble Gases	86%
Mostly dense, hard, and brittle metals that conduct heat and electricity well and have high melting points	Transition metals	57%
Very reactive, low melting points, excellent conductors of heat and electricity	Alkali metals	43%
More brittle metals with a poorer mechanical strength compared to transition metals	Post-transition metals	43%
Few occur naturally and all are radioactive	Actinides	29%
React readily, form numerous compounds, not found free in nature	Alkaline earth metals	29%
Quite reactive and tend to bond with alkali metals	Halogens	29%
Poor conductors, brittle and non-malleable, typically gain electrons	Nonmetals	29%
Intermediate conductivity, used in semiconductor technologies in electronic devices	Metalloids	14%
Shiny, silvery metals, typically ductile and malleable	Lanthanides	0%
