In terms of non-metals, the electrons are held tightly by the nucleus. Therefore nonmetals are very unwilling to give their electrons away. Nonmetals don't donate electrons as easily as metals, so society and chemists from the early ages distinguished between metals and nonmetals, Regards, Mike
Nonmetals have properties opposite those of the metals. The nonmetals are brittle, not malleable or ductile, poor conductors of both heat and electricity, and tend to gain electrons in chemical reactions. Some nonmetals are liquids.These elements are shown in the following figure. The nonmetals in the periodic table.onmetals have properties opposite those of the metals.
