Hey......!!
In chemistry, a nonmetal is a chemical element that mostly lacks the characteristics of a metal. Physically, a nonmetal tends to have a relatively low melting point, boiling point, and density. A nonmetal is typically brittle when solid and usually has poor thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity.
Example of non metal are Hydrogen, Helium, Chlorine, Fluorine,Carbon,Nitrogen,Oxygen, Phosphorous, Selenium. Examples of metals are aluminium, copper, iron, tin, gold, lead, silver, titanium, uranium, and zinc.
