Is ice a metal or non metal?
Ice is a non-metal. It is frozen water.
Why are flammable chemicals stored in a metal cupboard?
Flammable chemicals are stored in a metal cupboard to reduce the risk of fire. Metal is non-combustible and helps contain fires if the chemicals ignite. It also provides some level of protection from external heat sources.
Are non-metals the worst conductors?
No actually something like water is a good and fimiliar conductor but to get down to the science water is H2O. Two hydrogen atoms (hydrogen is a metalliod which is between metal and non-metal but is considered to be more non-metal) and one oxygen atom (oxygen is a non-metal) both together make H2O which is water and is a great conductor (but not as good as some metals are).
Does the hardness of water depend upon the metal or non metal ion of the mineral?
The hardness of water depends primarily on the concentration and chemical identities of the metal cations dissolved in the water. The non metal ions dissolved in the water have little effect unless the particular ions are capable of forming coordinate covalent bonds to the metal ions.
Is caesium reactive or non reactive?
Caesium is an extremely reactive chemical element.
This non-metal is stored under water because it catches fire very easily?
phosphorus
Which non metal is kept under water and why?
Sodium is a non-metal element that is kept under water because it reacts violently with moisture in the air, which can lead to fires or explosions. Placing sodium under water prevents it from coming into contact with air and ensures its safe storage.
Which nonmetal is a liquid under ordinary laboratory conditions?
Non-metal? Water would be one.
Is ice a metal or non metal?
Ice is a non-metal. It is frozen water.
Why phosphorus stored in water whereas sodium stored in kerosene?
Because phosphorus is very reactive non metal. It catches fire if exposed to air. To prevent the contact of phosphorus with atmospheric oxygen,it is stored in water. Whereas,sodium is very reactive. It reacts vigorously with oxygen and water. A lot of heat is generated in the reaction. It is, therefore,stored in kerosene
Is NO2 a metal or non-metal oxide?
NO2 is a non-metal oxide. Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) is composed of nitrogen and oxygen, both of which are non-metals on the periodic table. Non-metal oxides typically form acidic solutions when dissolved in water, as they react with water to produce acids. In contrast, metal oxides tend to form basic solutions when dissolved in water.
When a non metal oxide is dissolved in water is the solution acidic or basic?
When a non-metal oxide, such as sulfur dioxide, is dissolved in water, it forms an acidic solution. This is because non-metal oxides react with water to produce acids.
What causes low conductivity.... metal plus metal or non-metal plus non-metal or metal plus non-metal?
well, not metal+metal, but for the other 2 you'd have to specify, because water+metal=good conductivity & just water or another liquid = good conductivity. now stone, it is a horrible conductor.
Why do metal react with non metal?
Sulfur doesn't react with water.
What is a better insulator for a hot water pipe metal or nonmetal?
Non-metal
What is the nature of a non metal oxide?
Non-metal oxides are compounds that contain a non-metal element bonded with oxygen. They tend to be acidic in nature and can react with water to form acids. Non-metal oxides play a role in atmospheric chemistry and can contribute to acid rain when they dissolve in water droplets.
What is a non metal which is a good conductor of electricity?
Water
