Usually nonmetal, if all of them are compared as solids, because nonmetals have weaker intermolecular bonds.
A metal will not shatter if dropped becuase a nonmetal can be anything, so, if you drop a metal, there is no possible way it can break.
The term 'shatter belt' is often seen as 'shatter belt' region'. A shatter belt region is a state or group of states that exists within a sphere of competition between larger states. (Example- Poland was between Russia and Germany in World War II)

Yes, if a firecracker is ignited inside a glass bottle, the rapid expansion of gases produced by the explosion can build up pressure within the bottle, causing it to shatter. It is extremely dangerous to experiment with firecrackers in this manner and should not be attempted.
Yes, hail can shatter a window if it is large and moving at a high velocity. The impact of large hailstones can cause glass to break, especially if the window is already weak or damaged.
a nonmetal because a metal is shiny and strong so a nonmetal is brittle and dull
The category of element that would not be a good choice for making a container that can be dropped without shattering is a metalloid. For example, tellurium is shiny, but it is also brittle and is easily smashed into a powder.
A brittle element like a nonmetal or metalloid would be least appropriate for making a container that can be dropped without shattering. These elements tend to be more prone to breaking under stress compared to ductile metals, which can deform without shattering. Materials like glass and ceramics, which are often made from nonmetals or metalloids, would be poor choices for a drop-resistant container.
The only materials which shatter on impact are polymers, glass and fibred materials such as wood, though these to a much lesser extent. The measure of a material's tendency to shatter is the crystallinity of the chains or fibres used to make it up.Crystallinity is the proportion of crystalline regions, where the chains or fibres are lined up in a regular pattern and so are brittle, over the whole substance. The other type of region is an amorphous region, where the chains or fibres are aligned randomly.A material is more likely to shatter at lower temperatures. There is a certain temperature, referred to as Tg, below which a material is brittle, or glassy and cannot bend at all.

silicon is actually quite ductile as it is a metal
What is shatter?!
Shatter is a verb.

If you drop the glass, it will shatter. The mirror was going to shatter when it hit the floor after falling from the table.
shatter is like break and goes everywhere
To Shatter the Sky was created in 1984.
