3 physical properties of non metals: 1- they are mostly in the form of liquids and gases but some also exits as solids. 2-they absorb light and do not have much luster even on polishing. 3- they are bad conductors of heat and light due to the presence of metallic bond between its atoms...... ur retarted

∙ 13y agoNot the best conductor of electricity.
poor thermal conductor
gain electrons easily
hope this helps : )

∙ 11y ago1}they occur many in p- block of Periodic Table
2}have high electro negativity
3}forms acidic oxides

The element has 3 energy levels means that it is in the 3rd period. The only metalloid in the 3rd period is Si. It is in the 14th group.
AcidicThe properties that identify the non metals are poor conductors, low densities and high ionization energies.
- many nonmetals are gaseous or liquids- densities are not high- hardness of solid elements is not high- nonmetals form frequently anions- nonmetals form frequently compounds with covalent bonds
The fact that: * they do not conduct electricity * and if you want something else besides that, they melt at low temperatures.
If that's a true/false question, then the answer is "false." Otherwise I don't know what you mean.
- electronegativity- corrosivity- flammability
Nonmetals lack most of the properties of a metal.
because metalloids usually have properties that are similar to metals and nonmetals
Well, it's a gas, so its properties are closer to nonmetals.
i think they have properties of both metals and nonmetals .
Nonmetals are generally not shiny. They tend to be dull.
nonmetals because hydrogen is a gas
These chemical elements are nonmetals.
Nonmetals.
No, metalloids have properties of metals and nonmetals.
The metalloids have properties of both metals and nonmetals.
An element that has properties of both metals and non-metals is called Metalloid. Example is Germanium.
