Question

what is metal and non metal?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Elements that tend to gain electrons to form anions during chemical reactions are called non-metals.

With the exception of hydrogen, all elements that form positive ions by losing electrons during chemical reactions are called metals.

Answer 2

Hey dude here is your Answer------------------------✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️

Nonmetals. Elements that tend to gain electrons to form anions during chemical reactions are called non-metals. These are electronegative elements. They are non-lustrous, brittle and poor conductors of heat and electricity (except graphite). Non-metals can be gaseous, liquids or solids.......

❣️❣️Difference between metal and non metal ❣️❣️

===============================

Whereas non-metals may be solid, liquid and gaseous at room temperature. Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity but non-metals are poor conductors of heat and electricity. Metals are ductile in nature i.e. it can be drawn into thin wires. But non-metals are not ductile.
