bismuth is ametal as it shows all the properties of ametal. having high m.p,b.p etc

However, a simple way to tell is to check your Periodic Table as Bismuth is underneath the stair case formed by the metalloids in between the metals and non metals.

The metalloids are: Boron, Silicon, Germanium, Arsenic, Antimony and Tellrium. anything to the right of these elements are non metals while anything to the left of these are metals, including Bismuth.

Which non metal is in the same group as pb?

What is 'pb' ? If you mean 'Pb' (Lead) then the elements in this Group are ;_ Carbon (C) (Non-metal) Silicon (Si) (metalloid) Germanium (Ge) (Metalloid) Tin (Sn) (Metal) Lead(Pb) (Metal) Flerovium(Fe) (Metal & Radio-active) To answer your question , Carbon is the only Non-metal in the same Group as Lead . NB When writing chemical symbols the first letter is ALWAYS a CAPITAL letter and the second letter is small/lower case. Hence lead is 'Pb' not 'pb'. NNB 'Pb' is the initials for Plumbum , the Latin name for 'Lead'.
