Why is diamond a unusual non metal?
non-metals have lower density, melting and boiling point but diamond has higher density, melting and boiling point.
What alkali metal's melting point is at room temperature?
Unstable in air or water, they oxidize rapidly and sometimes violently.
Do most metals have a higher melting point than nonmetals?
Yes, most metals have higher melting points than nonmetals. This is because metals have a lattice structure of positively charged ions surrounded by a sea of delocalized electrons. The strong metallic bonds between the atoms require more energy to break, resulting in higher melting points compared to the comparatively weaker intermolecular forces in nonmetals.
What are characteristics of metals nonmetals and noble gasses?
Some characteristics Of Metals, Nonmetals, And Metalloids: Metals: High thermal and electrical conductivity Hard, dense, and solid (except For Mercury [which is a liquid]) Strong Malleable Ductility Luster Sonorous High melting points High tensile strength Nonmetals: Do not conduct heat and electricity very well Dull Brittle Not sonorous Insulators Low melting point Low tensile strength Metalloids: Semi-conductors Low conductivity
What happens if boiling point is higher than melting point?
The boiling point is always higher than the melting point.
Would metals or non metals tend to have a higher melting point?
Tungsten has the highest melting point of the elements and it is a metal.
Why the melting point boiling point and densities of alkaline earth metals are higher than alkali earth metals?
Alkaline earth metals do not exist , only alkali earth metals
Why is diamond a unusual non metal?
non-metals have lower density, melting and boiling point but diamond has higher density, melting and boiling point.
What alkali metal's melting point is at room temperature?
Unstable in air or water, they oxidize rapidly and sometimes violently.
what is the meling point of spelter?
Spelter, sometimes known as zinc, is used to fuse metals with a higher melting point. The actual melting point of spelter is 787.15 degrees Fahrenheit.
Does a metal burn when it gets higher than its melting point?
No. Metals do not burn, only melt.
Do most metals have a higher melting point than nonmetals?
Yes, most metals have higher melting points than nonmetals. This is because metals have a lattice structure of positively charged ions surrounded by a sea of delocalized electrons. The strong metallic bonds between the atoms require more energy to break, resulting in higher melting points compared to the comparatively weaker intermolecular forces in nonmetals.
What properties is not a property of metals?
Low Melting Point. Most metals have high melting point and are solids at room temperature.
Does CaO or CS2 have a higher melting point?
CaO has a higher melting point.
Which has a higher melting point Neon or Argon?
Argon has the higher melting point.
What property is not a physical property of metals?
Low Melting Point. Most metals have high melting point and are solids at room temperature.
Why can an acetylene torch be used to weld metals together?
it is an alkyne that burns at about 3500 degrees Celsius, much higher then most metals melting point.
