well, hydrogen, oxygen, helium, neon, nitrogen. honestly? the Periodic Table? the first 5 elements on the periodic table are non metals
Group 5 nonmetals have a charge of -3. Examples of group 5 nonmetals include nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P), which commonly form ions with a -3 charge by gaining 3 electrons.

Nonmetals are not malleable.
The nonmetals share the atoms when reacting with each other.
there are 18 there are 18 nonmetals
No. Nonmetals are dull, not lustrous.
Ionic.
Nonmetals have negative charges.
Yes, in solid form nonmetals tend to be brittle, however, several nonmetals are gasses and one, bromine, is a liquid.
Moving from left to right on the periodic table, the elements generall go from metal to nonmetals.
When nonmetals react with nonmetals, their atoms typically share electrons to form covalent bonds. This sharing allows each atom to achieve a more stable electron configuration, often resembling that of noble gases. As a result, molecules are formed, which can have various physical and chemical properties depending on the specific nonmetals involved.
They are poor conductors, brittle, not ductile in their solid state, show no metallic luster, and have a low density.
