non metals
non metals
The element belongs to the category of nonmetals if it is a poor conductor of electricity. Nonmetals typically have properties such as being brittle, not shiny, and having low conductivity of heat and electricity.

Any element that isn't a metal is not a conductor, except carbon in the form of graphite which can conduct electricity.
A metal is a shiny element that conducts electricity and heat.
One example of an element that fits this description is sulfur. Sulfur is a poor conductor of electricity and heat, and it tends to form negatively charged ions (sulfide ions) when it reacts with other elements.
Samarium is a good conductor for heat and electricity.
Hydrogen is a poor conductor of electricity in its pure form. It is the most abundant element in the universe but it rarely exists on its own. It conducts electricity better when it is ionized or combined with other elements.
At standard temperature and pressure (STP), the element that is malleable and a good conductor of electricity is copper.
electricity is not a compound, mixture or element.
Silver is the best conductor of electricity, and as it is costly, copper is widely used.
This element is a metalloid.
Sulfur has relatively high electronegativity and is also a poor conductor of electricity at room temperature. Fluorine has the highest electronegativity and copper is a good conductor of electricity.
