Differentiate blw metals & Non- metals on their
physical
properties

Some of the differences between physical properties of metals and non-metals :

<> Lustrous : Metals have lustrous property where as nonmetals don't have this property .

<> Sonorous : Metals produce sounds but not non metals.

<> Electricity : Metals conduct electricity in them whereas non metals cannot.

But graphite can also conduct electricity tho it as an nonmetal.

<> High Melting and boiling points will be found in metals but not in nonmetals.

<> Malleability and ductility property's can be found in metals whereas we don't find it in no metals.
