Question
All of the following are properties used to classify elements as metals, non-metals, and metalloids except:
- Texture
- Conductivity
- Luster
- Malleability
Hint:
Texture does not define a metal, non metal or metalloid.
The correct answer is: Texture
- Metals are malleable, conductor and luster.
- Non metals are non malleable, non lustrous and non conductor.
- Metalloids have the property of both metals and non metals.
- Texture is not a criteria to classify elements as metals, non-metals, and metalloids.
