  2. Nonmetal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonmetal

    For example, the chemically very active nonmetals fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine have an average electronegativity of 3.19—a figure [i] higher than that of any metallic element. The chemical distinctions between metals and nonmetals is connected to the attractive force between the positive nuclear charge of an individual atom and its ...

  3. List of alternative nonmetal classes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_alternative...

    The nonmetallic elements are sometimes instead divided into two to seven alternative classes or sets according to, for example, electronegativity; the relative homogeneity of the halogens; molecular structure; the peculiar nature of hydrogen; the corrosive nature of oxygen and the halogens; their respective groups; and variations thereupon.

  4. Nonmetallic material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonmetallic_material

    Some textbooks use the term nonmetallic elements such as the Chemistry of the Non-Metals by Ralf Steudel, [25]: 4 which also uses the general definition in terms of conduction and the Fermi level. [ 25 ] : 154 The approach based upon the elements is often used in teaching to help students understand the periodic table of elements, [ 26 ...

    They write, "Whilst these heavier elements [Se and Te] look metallic they show the chemical properties of non-metals and therefore come into the category of "metalloids" (p. 64). Phillips CSG & Williams RJP 1965, Inorganic Chemistry, vol. 1, Principles and non-metals, Oxford University Press, Clarendon.

  6. Properties of metals, metalloids and nonmetals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_metals...

    The chemical elements can be broadly divided into metals, metalloids, and nonmetals according to their shared physical and chemical properties.All elemental metals have a shiny appearance (at least when freshly polished); are good conductors of heat and electricity; form alloys with other metallic elements; and have at least one basic oxide.

  7. Properties of nonmetals (and metalloids) by group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_nonmetals...

    Silicon is a metallic-looking relatively unreactive solid with a density of 2.3290 g/cm 3, and is hard (MH 6.5) and brittle. It melts at 1414 °C (cf. steel ~1370 °C) and boils at 3265 °C. Silicon has a diamond cubic structure (CN 4). It is a non-conductive with a band gap of about 1.11 eV. [3]

  8. Periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    Elements in the same group tend to show similar chemical characteristics. Vertical, horizontal and diagonal trends characterize the periodic table. Metallic character increases going down a group and from right to left across a period. Nonmetallic character increases going from the bottom left of the periodic table to the top right.

  9. Non-metallic inclusions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-metallic_inclusions

    Non-metallic inclusions, the presence of which defines purity of steel, are classified by chemical and mineralogical content, by stability and by origin. By chemical content non-metallic inclusions are divided into the following groups: sulfides (simple — FeS, MnS, Al 2 S 3, CaS, MgS, Zr 2 S 3 and others; compound — FeS·FeO, MnS·MnO and ...
