Most of them are not. but C is a good conductor.
Group-17 are most reactive non-metals. They form halogens.
Most non-metals are in fact considered to be non-conductors. Some non-metals however do have the ability to conduct heat and electricity.
Most of the 92 naturally occurring elements can be classified as either metals or non-metals. Metalloids, also known as semi-metals, are a smaller group of elements that have properties of both metals and non-metals.
Metals are good heat and electricity conducters, most are solids, etc. Non-metals are not good conductors, made of mostly solids and gases, etc. And I don't think Semi-metal is even a term, I think the word your looking for is Metalloid which has properties of the other two.
No, most non-metals do not float in the air. Non-metals like oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide make up the gases in our atmosphere, but they are not solids or liquids that can physically float. They are part of the air we breathe.
they are poor electricity and heat conductors
no they are not. for example they are used as insulators in double glazing and flasks. if they were good conductors this would not work the heat would pass through.
The most reactive non metals are Halogens which may combine most of the metals as well as non metals.
metals are shinier than some of thenon metals. metals are excellent conducters of heat and electricity. metals can bear alot of strain without breaking. metals can be made into thin wires. metals can be mae into thin shapes.
Non metals
Most metals are not non-malleable or non-ductile, meaning they can typically be formed into different shapes without breaking. Additionally, most metals are not non-conductive of electricity and heat, but instead are good conductors of both.
The metals outnumber the non-metals by a good margin.
Non metals do not conduct heat. They have high resistance.They are insulators.Non metals do not have a pool of 'free electrons' (as metals do with metallic bonds). Hence they generally are poor conductors of heat. Nonmetals such as Styrofoam are widely used as insulators. Graphite is an exception as it is a good conductor of heat with its free electrons.Most of the non metals does not conductors because the do not have free electrons. But graphite is a good conductor. Most of the non metals are insulators.
They are in between the metals and non metals
Most elements on the periodic table are classified as metals, with only a few elements classified as non-metals.
Fluorine Good luck
Non-metals like graphite and doped silicon can conduct electricity due to the presence of free electrons that allow for electron movement. However, most non-metals are poor conductors of electricity as they lack the free electrons needed for conduction.
