Question

please give me the 10 lines of non metal

Answer 1

A nonmetal is simply an element that does not display the properties of a metal. It is not defined by what it is, but by what it is not. It doesn't look metallic, can't be made into a wire, pounded into shape or bent, doesn't conduct heat or electricity well, and doesn't have a high melting or boiling point.

The nonmetals are in a minority on the periodic table, mostly located on the right-hand side of the periodic table.

The exception is hydrogen, which behaves as a nonmetal at room temperature and pressure and is found on the upper left corner of the periodic table. Under conditions of high pressure, hydrogen is predicted to behave as an alkali metal.

Nonmetals on the Periodic Table

The nonmetals are located on the upper right side of the periodic table. Nonmetals are separated from metals by a line that cuts diagonally through the region of the periodic table containing elements with partially filled p orbitals. The halogensand noble gases are nonmetals, but the nonmetal element group usually consists of the following elements:

hydrogen

carbon

nitrogen

oxygen

phosphorus

sulfur

selenium

The halogen elements are:

fluorine

chlorine

bromine

iodine

astatine

Possibly element 117 (tennessine), although most scientists think this element will behave as a metalloid.

The noble gas elements are:

helium

neon

argon

krypton

xenon

radon

element 118 - (oganesson). This element is predicted to be a liquid but is still a nonmetal.

Properties of Nonmetals

Nonmetals have high ionization energies and electronegativities. They are generally poor conductors of heat and electricity. Solid nonmetals are generally brittle, with little or no metallic luster. Most nonmetals have the ability to gain electrons easily. Nonmetals display a wide range of chemical properties and reactivities.

Summary of Common Properties

High ionization energies

High electronegativities

Poor thermal conductors

Poor electrical conductors

Brittle solids - not malleable or ductile

Little or no metallic luster

Gain electrons easily

Dull, not metallic-shiny, although they may be colorful

Lower melting points and boiling point than the metals

Comparing the Metals and Nonmetals

The chart below displays a comparison of the physical and chemical properties of the metals and nonmetals. These properties apply to the metals in general (alkali metals, alkaline earth, transition metals, basic metals, lanthanides, actinides) and nonmetals in general (nonmetals, halogens, noble gases).
