Question

What is the chemical properties of metal and non metal

Answer 1

chemical properties of metals are as under:
reaction with oxygen: metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides.e.g.,
2Mg+02=2Mg0
metals react with hydrogen to form hydrides e,g
Can+H2............CaH2(calcium hydride)
metals react with water to form metallic oxides or metallic hydroxides e.g,
2k+2H2o...............>2KoH+H2+heat energy.
metals react with acids to form metal salts e.g,
2na+2HCl...............2NaCl+H2.
Reaction with non metals;
non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metallic oxides which are acidic in nature e.g,
c+o2..........co2
non-metals react with chlorine to form covalent chlorides e.g,
2p+5cl2........2pcl5
non-metals react with hydrogen to form covalent hydrides e.g,
H2+S............H2S
