Question

plz reply

Tell the difference between metal and nonmetal in detail . ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Metals:

Metals are usually Metals:

1. Metals are usually good conductors of heat and electricity.
2. They are hard, opaque, shiny, lustrous and malleable and ductile.
3. Metals usually form ionic bonds.

None-Metals:

Non-metals are usually good insulators of heat and electricity.

1. They are usually brittle and have dull appearence.
2. None-metals usually form covalent compounds..
3. Metals usually form ionic bonds.

None-Metals:

Non-metals are usually good insulators of heat and electricity.

They are usually brittle and have dull appearence.

None-metals usually form covalent compounds.

Answer 2

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 (anexception is mercury)
• Opaque as a thin sheet (can't see through metals)

Non-Metal Physical Properties:

• May be solid, liquid or gas at room temperature.
• Has lower melting point than metals.
• Has lower boiling point than metals.
• Non-lustrous - dull, not shiny.
• Poor conductors of heat.
• Poor conductors of electricity.
• Brittle - break when stretched.
• Low tensile strength - easily broken.
