Is metals are hard with high melting point?

no


Do metals have high melting or points?

Metals have high melting points. Metals lack ionic bonding and possess metallic bonds that are so strong that it takes so much heat to break them apart.


Do have nonmetals have high melting points?

Yes non metals do have high melting and boiling points. This is because they have strong intemolecular forces that are hard to overcome.A2. Their melting points vary. Obviously gases such as nitrogen and oxygen have low melting points, but Silicon (1414oC) and Diamond ( around 1700oC) are rather high. Phosphorous and Sulfur on the other hand are rather low.


Do group one metals have a high melting point?

No. Group 1 metals (commonly called the alkali metals) have low melting points.


State the physical properties of metals?

Pure metals have high density and very high melting and boiling points. In addition, these metals are excellent conductors of heat and electricity.

Why all crystals have high melting points?

because all crystals are metals .


What are the special characteristic of metal and non metal?

Metals are often hard. They conduct both heat and electricity. They often have high densities, high melting points, and high boiling points. And always loose electrons when bonding. Non-metals are the opposite of all the above characteristics.


Do most transition metals have higher or lower melting points than the representative elements?

Yes, transition metals have higher melting points. This is due to having very strong bonds. This means that a larger amount of energy is needed in order to break them down or bring them to the melting points.


Does a metal have a high or low melting point?

All metals have different melting points but they are all high
