Nonmetals have high ionization energies and electro negativities. They are generally poor conductors of heat and electricity.Solid nonmetals are generally brittle, with little or no metallic luster.Most nonmetals have the ability to gain electrons easily.Nonmetals display a wide range of chemical properties and reactivities.
