Question

what are metals and non-metals

Answer 1

Those substances which have
● High tensile Strength
● Lustrous
●Good Conductor of heat and electricity
●Sonorous and Malleable
●Have high melting and boiling points

are called Metals.

While those substances which are
●Brittle
●Non Lustrous
●Bad conductors of heat and electricity
●Non sonorous and Malleable
● Have low melting and boiling points

are called non metals

Answer 2

Metal:- A metal is a material that is typically hard, shiny, and has good electrical and thermal conductivity. Metals are generally malleable that is, they can be hammered or pressed permanently out of shape without breaking or cracking. As well as fusible and ductile.

Non metal:- non metals have properties opposite those of metals. The non metals are brittle, not malleable or ductile, poor conductors of both heat and electricity.
