Deffinatiate between metal and non-metalon the basis of their chemical properties.
Answers
Metals have free electrons due to which it conducts electricity.
Metal oxides are basic in nature.
Non-metals haven't any free electrons except graphite due to which it is an insulator.
Non-metal oxides are acidic in nature.

#REACTION WITH OXYGEN
➡️MOST METALS REACT WITH OXYGEN TO GIVE BASIC OXIDES.
➡️NON-METALS REACT WITH OXYGEN TO GIVE ACIDIC OXIDES.
#REACTION WITH WATER
➡️METALS REACT WITH WATER TO FORM OXIDES OR HYDROXIDES AND HYDROGEN.
➡️NON-METALS DO NOT REACT WITH WATER.
#REACTION WITH ACIDS
➡️METALS REACT WITH DILUTE HYDROCHLORICC AND SULPHURIC ACIDS TO FORM THE CORROSPONDING SALT AND TO LIBERATE HYDROGEN.
➡️NON-METALS DO NOT REACT WITH ACIDS.
#REACTION WITH ACIDS
➡️ONLY FEW METALS LIKE ALUMINIUM , ZINC AND LEAD REACT WITH STRONG BASES SUCH AS SODIUM HYDROXIDE TO RELEASE HYDROGEN.
➡️THE REACTION OF NON-METALS WITH ACIDS IS COMPLEX.
