metal eg. lithium, beryllium, sodium, magnesium, calcium, potassium, Strontium.
non metal eg. Boron, carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen, fluorine, sulphur, chlorine, phosphorus.
Answer:
Metals- metals are electro positive in nature. They posses the characteristic of malleability, sonority, ductility, good conductor of heat and electricity and hard.
example- Iron, silver
Non metal- they are electronegative in nature.
They are mainly soft, non malleable, non ductile, non sonorous, and bad conductor of heat and electricity.
example- oxygen, Fluorine
