Answer 2

Answer:

Differences between metals and non-metals on the basis of their physical properties

Metals are malleable and ductile. .Non- metals are brittle (break easily). They are neither malleable nor ductile.

Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. Non-metals are bad conductors of heat and electricity. Except for graphite which is a good conduction of electricity.

Metals are lustrous and can be polished.

Non-metals are non-lustrous (dull) and cannot be polished. Except for iodine

Metals are solids at room temperature.Except for mercury which is a liquid metal. Non-metals may be solid, liquid or gases at the room temperature.

Metals are strong and tough. Non-metals are not strong or tough
