Answer:

METALLIC ELEMENTS

  • easily lose valence electrons
  • 1-3 electrons (usually) in the outer shell
  • form basic oxides
  • good reducing agents
  • have low electronegativity
  • solid at room temperature (except mercury)
  • have metallic luster
  • good conductor of heat and electricity
  • typically malleable and ductile
  • opaque in a thin sheet

NON METALLIC ELEMENTS

  • easily share or gain valence electrons
  • 4-8 electrons in the outer shell (7 for halogens and 8 for noble gases)
  • form acidic oxides
  • good oxidizing agents
  • have higher electronegativity
  • may be liquid, solid, or gas (noble gases are gases)
  • do not have metallic luster
  • poor conductor of heat and electricity
  • usually brittle
  • transparent in a thin sheet

hope this will help u:)
