(1,2,3 ) valence electrons, Discharged at cathode, Basic oxide, (5,6,7) valence electrons.)​pls don't spam

Answer 1

Answer: Here is your answer:-

Metals- 1)Conduct Electricity

2)Ductile

3)Discharged at anode

Non-metals- 1)Brittle

2) Solid or gaseous state

3)Acidic Oxide

3)Basic oxide

4)Discharge at cathode

Explanation:

All metals occur in a solid or liquid state. But non-metals always occur always in solid or gaseous stats; exception- Mercury, which occurs in liquid state.

Metals always have a postive charge and so are always discharged at the anode because anode consists of a negative charge whereas the whole thing is opposite for non-metals. Electrons always have a negative charge in every atom in our observable universe. So I didn't write anything for the valence electrons in the answer column.
