Nonmetals burning in oxygen form covalent type compounds, as compared to metals which form ionic compounds.
These are covalent compounds.
to form compounds
Reactivity is the ability to form chemical compounds.
Oxygen and chlorine are each elements, not compounds. They combined to form a number of covalent compounds because they are both nonmetals.
Yes, it is true, many useful salts are known.
Curium is reactive and can form compounds with the majority of nonmetals.

nonmetals; nonmetals and metals
Yes, copper does form compounds with nonmetals.
These are covalent compounds.
Nonmetals may react with metal to form ionic compounds (salts) or other nonmetal elements to form organic compounds.
- many nonmetals are gaseous or liquids- densities are not high- hardness of solid elements is not high- nonmetals form frequently anions- nonmetals form frequently compounds with covalent bonds
These are nonmetals.
