Is usually a gas or brittle solid that is a poor conductor of electricity?
metalloid
Is sulfur brittle in its solid phase and a poor conductor of heat and electricity?
Yes, it is true.
Why was pig iron brittle?
It is a poor material because it is very brittle. This is caused by its high carbon content. It is a poor material because it is very brittle. This is caused by its high carbon content.
Is ductile a conductor?
Ductile means that it can hammered thin or made into a wire. That pretty much excludes the possibility of being brittle. However, conducting heat or electricity is entirely different. It just so happens that metals are often ductile and the often conduct heat and electricity, but other materials are not ductile that do conduct electricity, and many of them are brittle. The physical properties (being ductile or brittle) do not necessarily determine the chemical properties (being conductive).
Is brittle a physical property of metal?
some metals (cast iron for example) are brittle- it is a physical property

Yes, it is true.
What does non-metal mean?
A nonmetal is an element that tends to be dull, brittle, and a poor conductor of heat and electricity.

Element that is usually a gas or brittle solid at room temperature and is a poor conductor of heat and electricity?
Element that is usually a gas or brittle solid at room temperature and is a poor conductor of heat and electricity are non metals. A metal is an element that has luster, is a good conductor of heat and electricity, is malleable, and is ductile
Of the elements oxygen zinc and iodine which one is likely to be poor conductor of electricity and a brittle solid at room temperature?
Oxygen and iodine are not conductive.
Which characteristics describe most nonmetals in the solid phase?
Solid metals are often shiny, ductile(can be pulled into wires), malleable(can be hammered into thin sheets), and good condutors of heat and electricity. Hope this helped!

Is oxygen a poor conductor of electricity and a brittle solid at room temperature?
im pretty sure that oxygen is a poor conducter of electricty because it is a gas and a nonmetal and i think it is a brittle solid at room temperature but im not sure.....hope i helped :)
Is brittle a chemical or physical property?
physical
Which is not a characteristic of most metals brittle good conductor ductile malleable?
Most metals are not brittle.
