Key Stage 3

Meaning

A Non-metal is a a material that is a bad conductor of electricity and a bad conductor of thermal energy.

About Metals

Non-metals are found on the right hand side of the Periodic Table


This Periodic Table shows the Non-metal elements on the right in orange, green and grey.

Properties of Metals

There are several key properties of metals you should know. Non-metals are:

Bad conductors of electricity
Bad conductors of thermal energy
Dull - They do not have reflective surfaces.
Brittle - They break easily when hit.
Stiff - They do not stretch easily.
Not sonorous - They make a short dull sound when hit.

Key Stage 4

Meaning

A Non-metal is a a material that is a bad conductor of electricity and a bad conductor of thermal energy.

About Metals

Non-metals are found on the right hand side of the Periodic Table


This Periodic Table shows the Non-metal elements on the right in orange, green and grey.

Non-metals are on the right hand side of the Periodic Table because most of those elements gain electrons to form negative ions in compounds with metals.

Non-metal elements form covalent bonds with other non-metal elements.

Non-metal elements usually make poor electrical and thermal conductors electrons are shared but not easily transferred between adjacent atoms.

Non-metals elements have a range of melting and boiling points with some which are solid at room temperature and others gaseous and one liquid (Bromine).
