Metallic is any number of chemical elements, such as iron or copper, brass or steel, gold or silver, that amongst other things, are good conductors of heat and electricity.
Non metallic items include wood and plastic, paper and cloth and so on

∙ 13y ago90 - there are 92 elements in the Periodic Table before forming the artificial ones - 93 onwards however, Technetium and Promethium have not been found in nature - thus there are 90 so far

What are the three classes of group A elements?
Alkali, alkaline earth metals, and nonmetals.
What kind of bonds do metals and nonmetals form?
Metals and nonmetals form ionic bonds.
Do nonmetals only combine with nonmetals?
No. Nonmetals will also combine with metals and metalloids
Are Ba and Ca metals or nonmetals?
they are metals
Do the elements go from metals to nonmetals or nonmetals to metals?
Moving from left to right on the periodic table, the elements generall go from metal to nonmetals.
Is alkaline earth metal in the group of metals nonmetals metalloids or diatomic molecule?
The alkaline earth metals are metals!
What kind of elements form ionic bonds with nonmetals?
Metals. The two most reactive groups of metals that readily form these bonds with nonmetals are the alkali metals and the alkaline earth metals. Groups 1A and 2A.
What are the three classes of group A elements?
Alkali, alkaline earth metals, and nonmetals.
What is the most active group of nonmetals noble gases alkali metals halogens alkaline earth?
The most active metals are alkali metals.The most active nonmetals are halogens.
Why non metals found in more compounds than metals?
Even though there are about five times more elements that are metals than nonmetals, there are more nonmetals than metals found in compounds. Nonmetals form many more compounds than metals because living organisms are composed almost entirely of nonmetals. There are more than 8.7 billion living organisms on Earth.
What is the most reactive group of a metals and nonmetals?
Metals: alkaline metals Nonmetals: halogens
What term describes the reactive nonmetals that have seven valence electrons?
alkali earth metals
Are the elements ba and ca metals or nonmetals?
Barium (Ba) and calcium (Ca) are both metals, belonging to alkaline earth metals or group 2.
How are metalloids differents from metals and nonmetals?
because metalloids usually have properties that are similar to metals and nonmetals
What kind of bonds do metals and nonmetals form?
Metals and nonmetals form ionic bonds.
Which have larger ionic sizes metals or nonmetals?
nonmetals
What is an element that has characteristics of both metals and nonmetals?
An element that has characteristics of both metals and nonmetals is a metalloid.
