Best Answer

Metal compounds made of two or more metallic elements are usually called ALLOYS. However, there are true compounds and these are often known simply as inter-metallic compounds.

What is a non-metal elements?

Hydrogen is one. There are many others, including nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, phosphorus, argon, and chlorine.Nonmetal element is one of the elements which do not exhibit metallic properties, generally located in the upper right hand corner of the Periodic Table.A nonmetal is a substance that conducts heat and electricity poorly, is brittle or waxy or gaseous, and cannot be hammered into sheets or drawn into wire. Nonmetals gain electrons easily to form anions . About 20% of the known chemical elements are nonmetals.Examples of nonmetals are: nitrogenoxygenheliumsulfurchlorineFor more details refer to link below.

Is a metal an element?

Metals are a class of elements. A pure metal is an element. Some metals are alloys, which mean they have more than one metal or element in them. The metal bronze is made of two elements, the metal tin and the metal copper.

How many elements are in metal?

There are 117 known elements (up to 118 excluding 117 which has not been created as of yet). 17 are non-metals: H, He, C, N, O, F, Ne, P, S, Cl, Ar, Se, Br, Kr, I, Xe, and Rn 9 are metalloids: B, Si, Ge, As, Sb, Te, Po, At, Uuo* The remaining 91 are metals. *Ununoctium, Uuo, is predicted to be a metalloid but there is no experimental verification of this.There are 117 known elements (up to 118 excluding 117 which has not been created as of yet).

What is metal ores?

Metallic ores are rocks that contain metals.Sometimes it contains a metal compound, like Hematite, an ore of Iron, Fe2O3, for example. They can also contain metals that are found in their pure form, like copper (which can form compounds, but not usually when found in ore) and Gold (which does not form compounds). This is known as a 'native' metal.

Which metals are transition?

All the transition state metals can be found in the clearly marked central portion of the Periodic Table of elements, but I will tell you that most of the well-known metals, such as iron, copper, gold, lead, zinc, nickel, chromium, platinum, etc., are transition state elements. The only really well known metal that is not a transition state element is aluminum. Other metals such as calcium or sodium are also not transition state elements, but they are not often encountered in their metallic form, they are encountered in compounds such as salt. Metals that we encounter in metallic form are almost always transition state elements.
