Metals and Nonmetals
Manocha Academy・2 minutes read
The course focuses on metals and nonmetals, classifying elements into these categories based on their properties and characteristics, with metals being malleable, ductile, and good conductors of electricity while nonmetals are brittle and poor conductors. The periodic table categorizes elements into metals, nonmetals, metalloids, and noble gases, with metals like gold, silver, aluminum, and copper known for their excellent conductivity.
Insights
- Elements are categorized into metals, nonmetals, metalloids, and noble gases on the periodic table, with metals being malleable, ductile, and good conductors of electricity.
- Metals are the majority of elements, around 90 out of 118, exhibiting properties like malleability, ductility, conductivity, and lustrous appearance, while nonmetals lack these characteristics and are usually brittle, dull, and poor conductors of heat and electricity.
