Features of non-metals: Non-metals may be solids, liquids or gases. They do not conduct electricity under normal conditions. They may be electropositive or electronegative in nature. If solids, they are usually powdery or lumps without luster.
Metals and nonmetals form ionic bonds.
No. Nonmetals will also combine with metals and metalloids
they are metals
Moving from left to right on the periodic table, the elements generall go from metal to nonmetals.
no because metals conduct heat and electricity well, but nonmetals do not
Metals: alkaline metals Nonmetals: halogens
because metalloids usually have properties that are similar to metals and nonmetals
Metals and nonmetals form ionic bonds.
