For "only metals" the answer is alloys or intermetallic compounds, formed of course from atom of metals - the bonds are of metallic type.
All other chemical compounds contain atoms of chemical elements, metals or nonmetals.

Are atoms of nonmetals among the largest atoms?

Atoms of nonmetals tend to be smaller than atoms of metals in the same period.


When metals combine with nonmetals the atoms of the metals tend to lose electrons to the atoms of the nonmetalsforming wich bond?

Ionic bond.


When non metals react and metals react which atoms gain electrons?

Nonmetals gain electrons.


What is the differnece between an ionic compound and a covolant compound?

In an ionic compound, atoms transfer electrons from one to the other, creating oppositely charged ions. The ionic bond is an electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged ions. Ionic compounds tend to form between metals and nonmetals. In covalent compounds, atoms share electrons. Most covalent compounds form between nonmetals.


When nonmetals and metals react which atoms gain electron?

The non-metallic atoms will gain electrons, while the metallic atoms will lose electrons to become ions. An ionic compound is thus formed and all ions will have the noble gas configuration/structure.


What are the similarities metals and nonmetals have in common?

Metals and nonmetals are both in the periodic table. They both have atoms in them.


Is Di-nitrogen Pentabromide a nonmetal?

No: The distinction between metals and nonmetals is a property of elements or mixtures of elements (alloys), but dinitrogen pentabromide is a compound.


Is mgo a metal?

No. MgO is magnesium oxide. It is a compound. Compounds cannot be considered as metals or nonmetals.


Are covalent bonds made up of metals and nonmetals?

Two elements will form ionic compound if the difference in electronegativity between the two elements is above 1.7 and two elements will form covalent compound if the difference in electronegativity between the two elements is below 1.7 Metals and non-metals will form generally ionic compounds.


Which atoms that gain or lose an electron?

For example metals loss electrons and nonmetals gain electrons.
