Nonmetals have high ionization energies and electronegativities. They are generally poor conductors of heat and electricity. Solid nonmetals are generally brittle, with little or no metallic luster. Most nonmetals have the ability to gain electrons easily. Nonmetals display a wide range of chemical properties and reactivities.

  • High ionization energy
  • Poor thermal conductor
  • They are negatively charged
  • Poor electrical conductor

Is metal being cut into wire a physical or chemical property?

The ability to pull metals into wires is called ductility. Metals are ductile, non-metals are not. Ductility is a physical property.

Combustibility or lack thereof is a chemical property.


Is water a non example for a physical property?

Yes. Water is a substance - a chemical compound. But it is not a property.


Is brittle a physical property of metal?

Yes, brittleness is a physical property of some metals. Brittle metals tend to fracture or break without significant deformation when subjected to stress. This is in contrast to ductile metals that can be bent or stretched without breaking.


What is an example of a non-physical property?

Is non flammable a physical property of gold?

Yes, gold is non-flammable because it does not react with oxygen at normal temperatures. This is a physical property of gold based on its inherent chemical structure.


Give one property that is typical of non metals?

Physical properties of nonmetals are generally just the opposite of metals so: - No luster (dull appearance) - Not ductile - Low density - Low melting point - Poor conductor - Not malleable The chemical properties of non metals just tend to gain electrons Hope that helps
