What property of nonmetals is the opposite of malleable and ductile?
Brittle
What properties of nonmetals is the opposite of malleable and ductile?
Brittle
Do nonmetals crack?
Yes, in solid form nonmetals tend to be brittle, however, several nonmetals are gasses and one, bromine, is a liquid.
Elements that are brittle and dull are?
Elements that are brittle and dull are likely to be nonmetals. Nonmetals tend to have brittle, dull properties compared to metals which are typically malleable and lustrous. Examples of brittle and dull elements include carbon in the form of graphite and sulfur.
What is an element that is brittle and a poor conductor?
Nonmetals are elements that are brittle and dull.
What physical and chemical properties are among the nonmetals?
Most nonmetals are poor conductions of electricity and heat and are reactive with other elements. Solid nonmetals are dull and brittle.
Why is charcoal brittle?
Many nonmetals are brittle and Carbon is a non metal. Charcoal is a carbon compound so charcoal is brittle having the physical property of carbon.
What nonmetals in the solid state are poor conductors of heat tend to?
Nonmetals in the solid state tend to be brittle and poor conductors of heat.
Name two physical properties of nonmetals?
Well, nonmetals are opaque and brittle. They are also bad conductors of heat and electricity.
What is the state of matter of most nonmetals?
Some are solid (eg carbon) some are gaseous (eg oxygen) and one is liquid (bromine).
Element that is usually a gas or brittle solid at room temperature and is a poor conductor of heat and electricity?
Nonmetals, such as oxygen or sulfur, are typically gases or brittle solids at room temperature. They have poor conductivity of heat and electricity due to a lack of free electrons to carry the charge.
