Physical properties of Non-metals
**************************
1) Physical State
Non metals can exist in solid, liquid and gaseous state at room temperature eg:-
Solid: Carbon(C), Sulphur (S), Iodine (I)
Liquid: Bromine (Br)
Gas: Oxygen(O), Nitrogen(N), Hydrogen(H)
2) Colour
Non metals have various colour eg:-
Sulphur(yellow)
Chlorine gas (greenish – yellow)
Phosphorus (red, white) etc
3) Lustre
Non metals do not have lustre.
They can not reflect light.
But diamond and graphite have fine lustre.
4) Hardness
Non-metals are soft and brittle in nature.
Sulphur can be cut with the help of knife
But Diamond is hard, it is a non-metal
5) Sonority
Non-metals are non-sonorous.
They do not produce sound when struck with hard substances.
6) Density
Non-metals have very low density.
7) Melting point
Non-metal have very low melting point.
But Graphite and diamond have very high melting point .
8) Thermal conductivity
Non-metal are insulators they do not allow heat to pass through them.
But graphite is a good conductor of heat.
9) Electricity conductivity
Non-metal are insulators they do not allow electricity to pass through them.
But graphite is a good conductor of electricity.
10) Brittleness:
Non-metals are brittle in nature.
When non-metals are beaten with the help of hammer, they are converted into powder. This property is known as brittleness.
Non-metals are not able to conduct electricity or heat very well. Non-metals are very brittle, and cannot be rolled into wires or drawn into sheets.
