Insulators. Their valence electrons are tightly bound because the valence shell is close to full or full. Since each shell can only only hold a certain amount of electrons, the number of electrons depends on which shell is the outer or valence shell.
Things like plastic and glass don't conduct electricity. These are called insulators.
Wood, plastic, rubber, paint, and fabric.
Nonmetals are generally poor conductors of heat and electricity.
Nonmetals elements that are not malleable and do not conduct electricity while metals are elements that conduct electricity well and are shiny. they are also malleable.
Non-metals are elements that do not conduct electricity or heat very well. When solid these items are usually also very brittle.
Any element that is not a metal will not conduct electricity under standard conditions of temperature and pressure.
nonmetals
Gases.
Carbon is not malleable but in some forms can conduct electricity. Gold is malleable and conductive.
The transition elements are metals. As with all metals, the transition elements are both ductile and malleable, and conduct electricity and heat.

nonmetals
Carbon: It doesn't conduct electricity, it isn't malleable, it isn't ductile, it doesn't conduct heat very well.
Platinum is a transition metal. Transition elements are both ductile and malleable, and conduct electricity and heat.
No, it would be a nonmetal. Metals are usually malleable and do conduct electricity well.
Carbon is not malleable but in some forms can conduct electricity. Gold is malleable and conductive.
t that is a malleable, shiny solid, but doesn't conduct heat or electricity
nonmetal
The alkali metals, transition metals and metals in group 13, 14, and 15 on the periodic table all are malleable and good conductors of electricityEach of these groups has different characteristics, but all are able to conduct electricity and be formed or shaped easily.
The transition elements are metals. As with all metals, the transition elements are both ductile and malleable, and conduct electricity and heat.

Metal elements such as iron, aluminium and silver.
