In strict logical inference, nothing, because there could be very dense nonmetals to compensate for the gases. However, in fact the densities of nonmetals on average are less than the densities of metals.

Metalloids are 7 and other nonmetals are 17.


What is the group name and number of the most reactive nonmetals?

Halogens, Group 7.


Do all nonmetals have a completelyfull Valence shell of electrons?

There is no set amount of valence electrons for nonmetals. The amount of valence electrons a nonmetal has is determined by the number of electrons on the outer shell of the atom.


What is the basis in which the present day periodic table is organized?

The Periodic Table is organized by atomic number, metals, nonmetals, metalloids, periods, groups, and stability.


Why do isotopes of the same element have different densities?

Isotopes have a different number of neutrons, and neutrons have weight-on a molecular level.


Why dont equal masses of golf balls and ping pong balls contain the same number of balls?

Their densities are different.


Why do nonmetals have a negative oxidation number?

non metals accept electrons. Hence they show a negative oxidation number (negative denotes that the element accepts electrons)


Which nonmetals have an atomic number that is a multiple of 5?

All the nonmetals with a multiple of five for their atomic number are as follows: Boron (5); Boron is a metalloid, which means that it is a mixture of metal qualities and nonmetal qualities. Neon (10); Phosphorous (15); Bromine (35); Astatine (85). All the rest are either metals or undiscovered.


Do gases have the same density?

No, not all gasses have the same densities. and the density of the gas depends on a number of factors, so i guess under certain conditions for each individual gas, they COULD all be of the same density, but for standard pressure and temperature, no, they have differing densities.


Do geographic features like deserts or swamps have high population densities?

No, they have low population densities. The two ways to reduce population density are to reduce the number of people in the same area or to put the same number of people in a larger area. Deserts and swamps have both fewer people and more area than towns or villages.


How increasing population can be utilized for Economic development?

The ways in which population densities fluctuate-increasing, decreasing, or both over time-is the subject of population dynamics. Population density measures the number of individuals per unit area, for example, the number of deer per square kilometer. Although this is straightforward in theory, determining population densities for many species can be challenging in practice.
