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
Except for Germanium (Ge) and Antimony (Sb), all the elements to the left of that line can be classified as metals. These metals have properties that you normally associate with the metals you encounter in everyday life: They are solid (with the exception of mercury, Hg, a liquid).onmetals 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.
