Mercury : Metal : Carbon : Nonmetal
Explanation:
Elements can be divided into metals and nonmetals and it is important to know whether a particular element is a metal or nonmetal.
- Metals are the materials possessing or holding the characteristics of being hard, fusible, shiny, malleable, ductile etc. Metals are the elements which form positive ions by losing electrons. Thus, metals are known as Electropositive Elements.
- Non-metals are the elements that do not conduct electricity and are neither malleable nor ductile. Non-metals are the elements which form negative ions by gaining an electron. Thus, non¬metals are also known as Electronegative Elements.
Carbon
Carbon is a chemical element with the symbol C and atomic number 6. It is nonmetallic and tetravalent—making four electrons available to form covalent chemical bonds.
Mercury
Mercury is the only common metal which is liquid at ordinary temperatures. Mercury is sometimes called quicksilver. Its atomic number is 80.
