What is nonmetals metals and metalloid?

Answer 1

Metals are malleable (can be hammered into thin sheets), ductile (can be drawn through wires), lustrous (shining), sonorous (give a ringing sound when hit), excellent conductors of heat and electricity, have high melting and boiling points and are usually solid at room temperature.

Nonmetals are non-malleable, non ductile, dull colored, give a dull sound when hit, insulators or bad conductors of heat and electricity, have low melting and boiling points and are found in all three states of matter, that are, solid, liquid and gas.

Substances having both metallic and nonmetallic features are called metalloids.
