1 Non- Metals

2 Based on the table below what can you say about the physical properties?
Name Symbol m.pt b.pt Thermal conductivity Density Colour Hydrogen H -259 -253 0.181 None Nitrogen N -210 -196 0.025 Oxygen O -219 -183 0.267 Sulphur S 115 445 0.269 1.96 Yellow Chlorine C l -101 -34 0.009 green Low melting & boiling points Low densities Poor heat conductivity Dull in colour Poor electrical conductors Low in sonority Brittle- not malleable & ductile like metals

4 Low m.pt, b.pt. Gases have a much lower b.pts and m.pts
Non- metals Exist mainly as Occur naturally in free state- N2, O2 Combined- chlorides, oxides Solids- C, S, P, Si Gases- H2, N2, O2, Cl2 shows Some have Allotropy, xcpt Si Giant molecular structures- C, Si Simple molecular structures- S, P, Cl2, O2, H2, N2 Low m.pt, b.pt. Gases have a much lower b.pts and m.pts High m.pt, b.pt

5 Carbon Strong covalent bonds make diamond very hard.
Weak intermolecular forces between layers- that make up graphite.

6 Sulphur burns easily & quickly Has antibacterial property
Possesses bleaching action Able to form links between polymer chains Can be oxidised

7 Silicon Semi-conducting property
Usually found combines with oxygen as silica- sand or silicates for- clays

8 Phosphorus

9 Chlorine

10 Nitrogen It prevents premature explosions Reduces chances of corrosion

11 Hydrogen

12 Oxygen
