Question

physical property of metal and non-metal? ​

Answer 1

Physical Properties of Nonmetals

Physical State: Most of the non-metals exist in two of the three states of matter at room temperature: gases (oxygen) and solids (carbon). ... Non-Malleable and Ductile: Non-metals are very brittle, and cannot be rolled into wires or pounded into sheets.

Answer 2

Answer:

Physical Properties of Nonmetals

Non-Malleable and Ductile: Non-metals are very brittle, and cannot be rolled into wires or pounded into sheets. Conduction: They are poor conductors of heat and electricity. Luster: These have no metallic luster and do not reflect light.

Metal Physical Properties:

Lustrous (shiny)

Good conductors of heat and electricity.

High melting point.

High density (heavy for their size)

Malleable (can be hammered)

Ductile (can be drawn into wires)

Usually solid at room temperature (an exception is mercury)

Opaque as a thin sheet (can't see through metals)
