Question

Which property is not associated with non-metals?

• A. High density
• B. Low melting point
• C. Low tensile strength
• D. Non-ductile

Answer 1

The correct option is A High density

• As compared to metals, they have low density and will melt at low temperatures. The shape of a non-metal cannot be changed easily as they tend to be brittle and will break.
  
• Elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals are called metalloids. They can be shiny or dull and their shape is easily changed.
  
• Hence High density is not associated with non-metals and so option A is the correct answer.
