WHAT ARE THE CHARACTERISTIC OF METALS AND NONMETAL?

Answer 1

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

Answer 2

Metals are lustrous, shiny, malleable, ductile, sonorous and conduct heat and electricity.

Non metals are non lustrous, not shiny, not malleable and ductile and does not conduct heat and electricity.

Answer 3

Metals are conductive, maliable and are usually in the beggining of compounds name. They have metallic bonds. They are metallic and low in electronegativity. They have larger radii and smaller activation energy.

Non-metals are not conductive nor maliable. They usually come at the end of a compound name. Alone some are diatomic. They are high in electronegativity. They have smaller radii and have higher activation energy
