Answer:

Metals                                  

Metals are electro-positive.

Metals reacts with oxygen to form basic oxides.

4Na+O2  →2Na2O

Metal oxides and hydroxides bonds have ionic bonds.

Metals react with water to form hydroxide and hydrogen.

2Na+2H2O→2NaOH+H2

Metals react with dilute acids to form salt and H2  

Metals react as reducing agent by donating electrons. Na→Na  +  +e  −

Non-metals

Non-metals are electronegative.

Non-metals react with oxygen to form neutral or acidic oxide.

C+O2​ →CO2​  

 Non-metal oxides and hydroxides have covalent bonds.

Non-metals do not react with water.

Non-metals do not react with dilute acid and they can not displace hydrogen.

Non-metals are oxidizing agents that can gain the electrons.

Cl  2 +e  − →Cl  −

Hope u like it :D
