No, but it's not a metal, either. A "non-metal" is an element, and "wood" is not a chemical element. So, wood is not a non-metal, and it's not a metal, either.
Wood is a very complex substance made of many different molecules, which are made of many different atoms.
Because iron has got all the properties of metal, such as malleability, ductility, electricity, and heat conducting property. It is also sonorous and lustrous. Wood doesn't have any of those properties. Rather it is non - ductile, non - malleable, a bad conductor of heat and electricity, non - lustrous, etc. That's why iron is a metal and wood is a non - metal. :]
Oxygen is a non-metal. It is a reactive gas that is essential for sustaining life and is found in the non-metal group on the periodic table.
Last time I looked Ferrous was another name for Iron. Any metal that is not Iron is a non-ferrous metal
Neon is a non-metal. It is one of the Noble Gasses which are all non-metals.
P2O3 does not contain a metal nor an ionic bond, therefore it is not a metal.
Wood is a non-metal because it is not a conductor, metal is.

Some chairs are made of metal and others are made of non-metals like wood or plastic. It depends on which chair you are looking at.

Wood is wood. It is not metal, it is a living thing.
Some training bayonets were made of wood. Last ditch weapons in Japan during WWII were made of wood and other non metal materials.
An non-luminous object can be any oject that doesn't produce light, e.g. wood, metal, plastics, etc.

Everywhere. Wood, plants, rocks, water, anything that isn't metal
A wood swing is an insulator because wood does not conduct electricity well. It is made of non-metal materials that do not allow electric current to flow easily through them.
Jewelry can be made from various materials, including metals, gemstones, and non-metal materials. While traditional jewelry often features metals like gold, silver, and platinum, many pieces also incorporate non-metal elements such as beads, plastic, wood, and fabric. Therefore, jewelry is not exclusively a non-metal; it encompasses a wide range of materials.
because it is a conductor
