Answer:
Properties of metal and non-metal.
Explanation:
Properties of Metals:-
Physical Properties of Metals
- Some of the physical properties of metals are listed below.
- Shiny (lustrous) in nature
- Metal is a good conductor of electricity and heat
- Density and melting point is high
- Mouldable (Malleable) and Ductile.
- At room temperature, it is in solid form except for mercury
- Opaque
Chemical Properties of Metals
- Some of the chemical properties of metals are listed below.
- Easily corrodible
- Can lose electrons
- Form basic oxides
- Have low electronegativities
- Good reducing agent
Properties of Non-Metals:-
Physical Properties of Non-metals
- Some of the physical properties of non-metals are listed below.
- Poor conductors of electricity and heat
- Non-Ductile metals
- Brittle solids
- Maybe solids, liquids or gases at room temperature
- These are not sonorous
- Transparent
Chemical Properties of Non-metals
- Some of the chemical properties of non-metals are listed below.
- The number of electrons in the outer shell is generally 4-8
- Easily gain or lose valence electrons
- Form acidic oxides whenever they come in contact with oxygen
- High electronegative elements
- Great oxidizing agents
