A reaction between a metal and a non-metal is an ionic bond. The metal "gives away" one (or more) of its electrons to become stable. The non-metal "accepts" them.

Reaction between a metal oxide and a nonmetal oxide to produce a salt containing at least three elements is a synthesis reaction. The salt almost always contains at least one monatomic metal cation and at least one polyatomic anion that contains all of the elements of the reacted nonmetal oxide plus the oxygen atoms from the metal oxide. This type of anion is called an "oxyanion" or the "anion of an oxyacid."

Nails are metal.
A nonmetal is an element that tends to be dull, brittle, and a poor conductor of heat and electricity.
The metal and nonmetal will tend to form an ionic bond between them when they combine chemically.

Is ceramic metal or nonmetal
Metal is metal. Nonmetal is everything else.
