What is the charge of group 5 nonmetals?

Group 5 nonmetals have a charge of -3. Examples of group 5 nonmetals include nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P), which commonly form ions with a -3 charge by gaining 3 electrons.


What does it mean when nonmetals are better insulators than conductors?

Nonmetals have higher electrical resistance compared to metals, making them better insulators. This means that they are less likely to allow the flow of electricity through them. Nonmetals have fewer free electrons that can carry electrical charge, which hinders their ability to conduct electricity.


Would nonmetals be attracted to water's hydrogen's or oxygen?

Neither. A non-metal element has no charge, which would be required for attraction.


Anions are common among nonmetals?

Anions are negatively charged ions formed by nonmetals gaining electrons. Nonmetals typically gain electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration, resulting in the formation of anions. Anions are commonly found in compounds involving nonmetals due to their tendency to gain electrons.

What type of bond will form between N and O?

A polar covalent bond will form between nitrogen (N) and oxygen (O), as both elements have similar electronegativities causing them to share electron pairs unequally. This results in a slight negative charge on the oxygen atom and a slight positive charge on the nitrogen atom.
