carbon is an element unto itself on the pieriodic table.
No, carbon does not have properties of both metals and nonmetals. It is a nonmetal and has properties such as being a poor conductor of electricity and having a low melting and boiling point. Carbon does not exhibit metallic properties like luster, malleability, and the ability to conduct electricity like metals do.
Nonmetals lack most of the properties of a metal.
A non-metal is an element on the periodic table that does not have the properties of a metallic element, such as malleability. Nonmetals are usually found in nature as gases or weak, brittle solids. All group 17 and 18 elements are nonmetals, as well as hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, sulfur, and selenium.
Metals are iron, platinum, beryllium, uranium, sodium etc. Nonmetals are sulfur, oxygen, neon, carbon, chlorine etc.

Well, it's a gas, so its properties are closer to nonmetals.
Nonmetals lack most of the properties of a metal.
nonmetals
Antimony, germanium
metalloid. It has properties of metals and nonmetals.
Carbon?
Neither it is a metalloid or semi-metal. It has both metallic and nonmetallic properties.
Metalloids
Nitrogen, oxygen, carbon, iodine, sulfur, Solid, Bromine.
Carbon is the only non-metal in carbon family. The other elements are either metalloids or metals.
Gun powder contain sulfur and carbon; they are nonmetals.
yes because gold is a metal and carbon is a non-metal.
Metals have luster ,they are electric and heat conductors , moreover they have high melting and boiling points.This properties will distinguish it from nonmetals.
