Question

what is the difference between metal and non metals​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Difference Between Metals And Nonmetals. Metals and Nonmetals are different types of materials present around us. ... Metals (like copper and aluminium) are good conductors of heat and electricity, while nonmetals (such as phosphorus and sulfur) are insulators.

Answer 2

Answer:

The difference between metals and non-metals:

METALS

1) They show the process of malleability and hence they are malleable.

2)They have a shiny surface and are lustrous.

3) Metals are good conductors of electricity and heat.

4)Metals have high tensile strength due to high attraction between molecules.

5)Metals have high density.

6)They combine with oxygen to form basic oxides.

NON-METALS

1) They are not malleable.

2) They do not have a shiny surface and are non lustrous.

3) Non-metals are bad conductors of heat and electricity.

4)Non-metals have low tensile strength due to low attraction between molecules.

5)Non-metals have low density.

6)They combine with oxygen to form acidic oxides.
