Question

Differentiate metals and non-metals on the basis of: 2m

i) Malleability

ii)
Conductivity of heat

​

Answer 1

Answer:

Metals are good conductor of heat and electricity it allows the electricity and heat pass through object. Non metals are poor conductor of heat and electricity it does not allow the electricity and heat pass through it. ... Non metals cannot be drawn into wires as they are not ductile.

Answer 2

Answer:

metals are malleable they can be hammered down into thin sheets ex iron

non metals are brittle this when hammered they will break into process and cannot be turned into thin sheets this they are non malleable

metals are good conductors of heat they conduct heat and electricity

non metals are poor conductor of heat and do not conduct heat and electricity (exception graphite)
