sulphur
It is not malleable. It is in fact very brittle due to the structure of the particles. Only metals can be malleable because of the positive ions existing in a sea of free electrons. This means the positive ions can move around without being detached from their electrons.
Sulfur can exist in different allotropes, including amorphous sulfur, α-sulfur, β-sulfur, and γ-sulfur. The fracture of sulfur can vary depending on its form, but generally, sulfur exhibits a brittle fracture with irregular or conchoidal patterns.
The element that fits this description is sulfur. Sulfur is a non-metal that is brittle, meaning it breaks easily when subjected to stress. It has a dull appearance and does not conduct electricity because it lacks free electrons to carry an electric current.
The element that fits all of these characteristics is sulfur. Sulfur is a non-metal that is a poor conductor of electricity, has a yellow color, is brittle in its solid form, is not magnetic, and is not ductile. Additionally, sulfur exists as a solid at room temperature.
Sulfur is brittle.
sulphur
a nonmetal because a metal is shiny and strong so a nonmetal is brittle and dull
Almost all of the non-metals are brittle when solid. For example, sulfur.
Sulfur is not malleable. It is a brittle non-metal that breaks easily under pressure rather than deforming.
A yellow brittle solid is most likely a non-metal. Metals are typically solid at room temperature, but they are usually malleable and ductile, rather than brittle. Non-metals, on the other hand, can be brittle in nature.
No, sulfur is a brittle solid at room temperature and cannot be bent like a metal. It will break if you attempt to bend it.
One example of a brittle nonconducting solid at 25 degrees Celsius is sulfur.
It is not malleable. It is in fact very brittle due to the structure of the particles. Only metals can be malleable because of the positive ions existing in a sea of free electrons. This means the positive ions can move around without being detached from their electrons.
Yes, it is true.
Sulfur has many forms.The most common form found in nature is yelloworthorhombic α-sulfur, this is a hard brittle material."Plastic sulfur "is a mixture of long chain polymeric sulfur forms, which is flexible.There are also gaseous forms. At high pressure it may even be metallic.
