Question

State the physical properties of metals and non.metals .Explain with examples.​

Answer 1

Physical properties

Typical physical properties of metals:

• high melting points

• good conductors of electricity

• good conductors of heat

• high density

• malleable

• ductile

Example: Metals include gold, sodium, copper, iron, and many other elements. Metals are usually malleable, ductile, and shiny.

5 Fundamental Properties Of Nonmetals

• ionic/covalent bonds.

• brittle and nonmalleable.

• low melting/boiling points.

• High ionization energy and electronegativity.

• poor conductors of heat and electricity.

Hydrogen, hydrogen, chlorine, fluorine, carbon, nitrogen, arsenic, phosphorus, selenium are examples of non-metal.
