Question

Among the following, the element possessing a low melting point is:

  1. Metals
  2. Non-metals
  3. Metalloids
  4. Halogens

hintHint:

Melting point of non metals are low.

The correct answer is: Non-metals


    • Metals have high melting and boiling point.
    • Down the group melting point of halogens increases.
    • Metalloids have intermediate melting point.
    • Non metals have low melting point.
