Question

You are giving two solids, one of them which is a metallic element and the other a nonmetallic element. Write down five properties which can be used to distinguish the two elements... pleas4e tell the answer u will get points... grade 7

Answer 1

Answer:

Hii

Your ans is

Explanation:

1st. Metals are having hard structure

while nonmetals are having soft structure

2nd. metals are good conductors of electricity and heat

while non metals are bad conductors of electricity and heat and dust they are mainly insulators.

3rd. particles of metals have strong intermolecular forces of attraction while particles of non metal have weak intermolecular forces of attraction

4th.metals are mainly lustrous while non metals are not having so much shine

5th. metals have higher melting point as compared to non metals

6th. metals metals also have high boiling point as compared to that of non metal.

I really hope it helped you...

And if yes, then please mark this answer as brainiest...

Answer 2

Five properties that can distinguish between metallic and non metallic elements are -

1. Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity due to availability of free electrons. Non metals are not good conductors of heat and electricity.
2. Metals are malleable and ductile which means they can be drawn into sheets and wires. Non metals are brittle which means they break easily.
3. Metals have shiny and lustrous appearence while non metals are dull.
4. Metals have high melting points but non metals have low melting points.
5. Metals form basic oxides while non metals form acidic oxides.
