Some physical properties of non-metals are that they are brittle if solid, are not good conductors of either heat or electricity, and are not ductile. They also are without luster, soft, and have low tensile strength.
-Not soluable in water -High melting point -High boiling point -Conduct heat -Conduct electricity -Hard to bend or break thats it
Arsenic
Semi-metals or metalloids. The elements boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, tellurium, and astatine have properties similar to both metals and non-metals. These elements are located along the semi-metal line of the periodic table.
Mercury forms amalgams with most metals. It can react with non-metals to form to types of compounds: mercurous and mercuric compounds.
they are used to separate magnetic metals and non-magnetic metals in a scrapyard and are used as well to lock gates shut by forming a clamp and holdong tight.
They are financial assets because they are non-physical assets
no
metal- shiny non-metal- dull
metals, non-metails and metalloids
Non metals do not conduct heat & electricity, good insulators, non mileable, high combustivity, low density and light in weight
A wide variety of elements fall under the classification of non metals and have different properties. In contrast to metals, though, they are worse conductors and are dull in their solid state. They also tend to have lower densities and lower boiling points than metals.
Non-metals are much more diverse than metals, however, they all have some similar physical properties. Non-metals are not good conductors of heat or electricity. Solids are usually brittle, non-ductile, not shiny, and at least partially transparent or translucent.
AcidicThe properties that identify the non metals are poor conductors, low densities and high ionization energies.
The metalloids have properties of both metals and nonmetals.
They have high ionization energy and high electronegativity.
They are all solids. They have properties of metals and non metals.
Metalloids Metalloids have properties of both metals and non-metals.
