How Metal Elements Differ From Nonmetal Elements?
Metals and Non-metals are the different forms of materials that are present on earth. Elements further can be subdivided into Metals and Non-Metals depending on their Physical and Chemical Properties. Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity, while Non-Metals are considered insulators. Examples of Metals are Iron, Copper, and Aluminum, while Examples of Non-Metals are Phosphorous, Sulfur, etc. In this article, we will go through a detailed understanding of Metals and Non-Metals elements, the Properties of Metals and Non-Metals, and the Difference between Metal and Non-Metal Elements.
