you would classify each material into.
Using your lesson notes and research you have carried out into materials
and their properties, produce a report for the judging panel that includes:
The classification of FOUR unknown materials on the basis of their
macroscopic properties. Examine the macroscopic properties of
each material (ie melting point, boiling point, strength, toughness,
malleability, electrical and thermal conductivity, density and
biodegradability) and from this determine the classification into
one of the following groups:
o metals and alloys
o glass
o polymers
Task o ceramics
o carbon allotropes
o composites
