Explanation:
Metals
- Metals are easily corrodible.
- They have 1,2 or 3 electrons in the valence shell. So they can lose electrons easily.
- Produce the basic oxides.
- They are electropositive in nature.
- These acts as a good reducing agent.
Nonmetals
- Nonmetals are not easily corrodible.
- Nonmetals own more than 4 electrons in their valence in their shell. So they can easily gain electrons.
- These forms acidic oxide.
- These are electronegative in nature.
- They as a great oxidising agent.
