hello !! here is your answer....☺☺

metals

Most elements are metals. This includes the alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, transition metals, lanthanides, and actinides. On the periodic table, metals are separated from nonmetals by a zig-zag line stepping through carbon, phosphorus, selenium, iodine, and radon. These elements and those to the right of them are nonmetals.

Metal Physical Properties:


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)


✨Metals are sonorous or make a bell-like sound when struck



Metal Chemical Properties:

✨Have 1-3 electrons in the outer shell of each metal atom and lose electrons readily


✨Corrode easily (e.g., damaged by oxidation such as tarnish or rust)


✨Lose electrons easily


✨Form oxides that are basic


✨Fave lower electronegativities


✨Are good reducing agents




non metal

Nonmetals, with the exception of hydrogen, are located on the right side of the periodic table. Elements that are nonmetals are hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, oxygen, sulfur, selenium, all of the halogens, and the noble gases.

Nonmetal Physical Properties:



✨Not lustrous (dull appearance)


✨Poor conductors of heat and electricity


✨Nonductile solids


✨Brittle solids


✨May be solids, liquids or gases at room temperature


✨Transparent as a thin sheet


✨Nonmetals are not sonorous



Nonmetal Chemical Properties:


Usually have 4-8 electrons in their outer shell


✨Readily gain or share valence electrons


✨Form oxides that are acidic


✨Have higher electronegativities


✨Are good oxidizing agents

hope it helped :)
