What else can I help you with?
Elements that have physical and chemical properties of both metals and nonmetals are known as?
there are no elements which show exact properties but... 1) Luster : Graphite and iodine 2) Liquid metals : Bromine, Mercury 3) Thermal conductivity : Diamond 4) Electric " " : Graphite 5) Non metals which are hard : Graphite and Diamond
What kinds of metals are found in grafite?
Graphite is composed of pure carbon, a non-metallic element. So there are no metals in graphite
What are the non lustrous metals?
Diamond,Radium,Graphite
Imports and exports of Korea?
metals lead graphite tungsten and molybdenum
Name two non metals that are lustrous?
Iodine and graphite are two nonmetals that can exhibit a lustrous appearance under certain conditions.
What are the things which has lustre?
Almost all metals are lustrous and shine and some non-metals like Graphite and iodine do have some lustre.
What minerals are found in a pencil?
The part of the pencil that does the actual writing, called the pencil lead, is actually made of a mineral called graphite.
Why graphite a nonmetal?
Graphite is a form of the element carbon, which is a nonmetal. While it has a metallic luster and conducts electricity, graphite is brittle. Unlike metals, which are held together by metallic bonds, graphite is a covalent network solid. Other forms of carbon behave more clearly as nonmetals.
Why is the graphite in pencils called lead?
The graphite in pencils is called "lead" due to a historical misunderstanding. In the 16th century, graphite was thought to be a form of lead ore. Despite its incorrect naming, the term "lead" has persisted in reference to pencil graphite.
Why does metal stick to graphite?
Metal can stick to graphite due to a phenomenon called adhesion, where two surfaces come into contact and create intermolecular forces that hold them together. In this case, van der Waals forces between the atoms of the metal and the graphite can cause them to stick together. Additionally, the rough surface of graphite can provide more contact points for the metal, further enhancing the adhesion.
Why is graphite not used for electrical wires?
No, cables can't be drawn out of graphite. As wires can be drawn out of ductile substances like metals As graphite is highty brittle in nature. and non- ductile substance can't be drawn into the cables. thanks you have nice day
What are elements that are very brittle and have no metallic luster called?
Elements that are very brittle and have no metallic luster are typically classified as nonmetals. Examples include sulfur, phosphorus, and carbon (in the form of graphite). These elements tend to be poor conductors of heat and electricity.
