Non-metals are also called electronegative elements because the non-metal atom form negatively charged ion by accepting electrons.

1. Reaction of Non-metals with Oxygen

All non-metals react with oxygen to form acidic or neutral oxides. For example, Carbon forms acidic carbon dioxide on reacting with oxygen.

C+ O2 → CO2 
( Carbon Dioxide)

2. Reaction of Non-metals with Water

Non-metals do not react with water.

3. Reaction of Non-metals with Dilute Acids

Non-metals do not react with dilute acids and don’t displace hydrogen from dilute acids, because non-metals are electron acceptor. So, they cannot supply electrons to H+ ions. So, they do not displace hydrogen from dilute acids.

4. Reaction of Non-metals with Chlorine

Non-metals react with chlorine to form covalent chlorides. For example,

H2 + Cl2 →2HCl ( Hydrogen chloride)

Elements that tend to gain electrons to form anions during chemical reactions are called non-metals. These are electronegative elements with high ionization energies. They are non-lustrous, brittle and poor conductors of heat and electricity (except graphite). Non-metals can be gases, liquids orsolids.
