In the Periodic Table you'll find more 'non metallics' in the lower and right area: thus on the right sight in period 2: C, N, O, F, Ne (group 14-18).
One should look at the 'Periodic Table Lay-out legend' linked in 'Related links' just below this answer.

Which element following the 3rd periodic table has at least metallic character?
The element in Period 3 that has the greatest metallic character is magnesium. In periods, the metallic character decreases when atomic number increases.
What period has the most non-metals?
Second period has most non-metals.It has total five non-metals.
How can you determine the type of chemical bond a substance has?
If you mean ionic, covelant or metallic: Metallic bonding is between 2 metal atoms. Ionic bonding is betwen non metal and metal atoms. Covelant bonding is between 2 non-metals.
Are there are more nonmetallic elements than metallic elements?
No. There are much more metallic elements than non metallic elements. All of Group 1, 2 and 5 are metals. All of the transition metals (inc. Lanthanides and Actinides) are metals. Also, most elements in group 6 and 7 are metals.
How does the number of valency electrons help to explain why aluminium is a metal and iodine and bromine are non-metals?
Simple rule of thumb: elements with 1, 2, or 3 valence electrons are metals; elements with 6, 7, or 8 valence electrons are non-metals. Elements with 4 or 5 electrons can go either way; they tend to be non-metals at low Z with increasing metallic character as Z increases (so carbon is pretty definitely a non-metal, while bismuth is pretty metallic, and even astatine ... which has 7 electrons ... exhibits some metallic properties, though it's difficult to say for sure because all known isotopes of astatine are highly radioactive; its most stable isotope has a half-life of only 8.1 hours ... for comparison consider probably the most well-known radioactive element, uranium, whose most stable isotope has a half-life of over four billion years).

Second period has most non-metals.It has total five non-metals.
What are the three types of mineral mineral luster?
1.metallic 2. non metallic 3.sub metallic
Which element of period 2 is the most reactive non metal?
fluorine
What Non metal element in the compound ammonium nitride?
2 non metallic elements = Nitrogen and Hydrogen
Is beryllium a metallic non-metallic or metalloid?
Beryllium (Be) is a metal. It is in group 2 on the periodic table, which are called the alkaline earth metals.
Is magnesium a non metallic element?
No, Magnesium is not a non metallic element,It is an alkaline earth metalMagnesium is a chemical element with the symbol Mg and atomic number 12.Its common oxidation number is +2.
What period in the periodic table contains the largest number of nonmetals?
Period 2, It only contains two metals, making it the least metallic period
How can you determine the type of chemical bond a substance has?
If you mean ionic, covelant or metallic: Metallic bonding is between 2 metal atoms. Ionic bonding is betwen non metal and metal atoms. Covelant bonding is between 2 non-metals.
Is carbon under the category of group or period?
Carbon: - non metallic element - atomic number 14 - natural chemical element - atomic weight [12,0096; 12,0116] - group 14 in the periodic table of Mendeleev - period 2 in the periodic table of Mendeleev

Which element is located at group 2 period 4?
In the periodic table, the Group 2, Period 4 element is calcium. Calcium is classified as a silvery-gray metal. Calcium is the most abundant of the metallic elements in the human body.
