Certain elements are brittle and can shatter upon impact, particularly nonmetals and some metalloids. Examples include iodine, sulfur, and phosphorus, which can break or crumble when subjected to stress. Additionally, some alloys and compounds can exhibit shattering properties under specific conditions. In general, materials with a high degree of covalent bonding tend to be more brittle and susceptible to shattering.
