Answer: plz mark as brainliest
Chemical Properties of Metals
- Easily corrodible
- Can lose electrons
- Form basic oxides
- Have low electronegativities
- Good reducing agents
Chemical Properties of Non-metals
- The number of electrons in the outer shell is generally 4-8
- Easily gain or lose valence electrons
- Form acidic oxides whenever they come in contact with oxygen
- High electronegative elements
- Great oxidizing agents
Explanation:
Chemical Properties of metals
The density of metals is usually high.
Metals are malleable and ductile.
Metals form an alloy with other metals or non – metals.
Some metals react with air and corrode. ...
Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. ...
Generally, metals are in a solid state at room temperature.
Chemical Properties of non metals
Nonmetals are poor conductors of heat and electricity. ...
Unlike metals, nonmetals aren't malleable and ductile.
Nonmetals react more with metals than with nonmetals.
Usually, nonmetals react with other nonmetals in high temperature.
Most nonmetals do not react with air in room temperature.
