Question

Differentiate between metals and non-metals on the basis of malleability, ductility and conductivity.​

Answer 1

Answer. 1)The metals are generally present in the solid form at room temperature except mercury which is liquid at room temperature. ...

2) Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity but non-metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity. Metals are ductile in nature i.e. it can be drawn into thin wires.

Explanation:

Answer: Malleability: The property of metals by which they can be beaten into thin sheets is known as malleability. ... Ductility: The property of metals by which they can be drawn into thin wires is known as ductility. Metals can be drawn into wires and beaten into thin sheets, i.e they are both malleable and ductile.

Answer 2

metals:

metals are melleble and ductile and are good conductors of heat and electricity

non- metals:

non - metals are neither mellable nor ductile and are very poor conductors of electricity
