no, you can not use color to distinguish if something is metal or non-metal
One physical test that can be used to distinguish between a metal element and a non-metal element is the ability to conduct electricity. Metals generally conduct electricity well, whereas non-metals are poor conductors. Another test is the luster or appearance - metals are usually shiny and have a metallic luster, while non-metals are dull in appearance.
The color coding in the Periodic Table of the Elements shows the different familes of elements. There are further sub-groupings existent. For example, there are six different colors used for the metals, one for metalloids, and three for non-metals. Green represents "Other Non-Metals". Pink is used for the Actinides. Blue indicates that a substance is a member of the Noble Gases.
They are all solids. They have properties of metals and non metals.
Examples of non-shining metals include lead, tin, and zinc. These metals typically have a dull appearance rather than a reflective, shiny surface. Unlike metals like silver or aluminum, non-shining metals often have a more muted color and can oxidize or tarnish easily, further diminishing their luster.
all are non metals
No. Every element is homogeneous.
No, it can not be used. Every element has colour homogeneity.

Color in the periodic table is used to differentiate between different categories of elements such as metals, metalloids, and nonmetals. It helps visual learners quickly identify trends and patterns within the table, such as the transition metals in the middle or the noble gases on the right. Overall, color aids in understanding the organization and structure of the elements in the periodic table.
Metals are listed on the “left hand side” of the periodic table, while non-metals are on the “right hand side
When metals combine with non-metals you normally get an ionic compound. So, sodium chloride is ionic. When non-metals combine with other non-metals you get a covalent type of compound, so water is covalent. If you really want to distinguish between the two you need to become familiar with the Periodic Table of Elements.
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.

No, some metals (Aluminum and Gold, etc.) are non-magnetic.
Non metals
you should use a streak test this will use color streaks to show metal should be white non metal will be a darkish color like the material
