If you are given 2 samples , how do you distinguish is metal or non metal? ​

Explanation:Metal can be distinguished by physical properties and chemical properties. Its physical properties are as follows

1)malleability

2)Ductility

3)Conduction of heat

4)sonorous

5)metalic lustre

Please mark as the brainliest

metals show the following properties:

while non metals don't show any of these properties except in some exceptions

By checking it's properties

It's quite simple

We know

Atomic no =no of proton=no of eletron

So by Atomic no we are able to identify no of elctron.

Simply arrange the electron in a shell .

If it gains electron from others then it is electronegative (Non Metal).

Similarly if it loses electron then it is electropositive (Metal).

All I want to say is Electropositive elements are metal whereas electronegative elements are non metal.

we can distinguish metal and non metal by the below characters

malleability

ductility

sonority

melting and boiling points
