What’s New

Activity 1. The Nonmetallic Poem!

Directions: Below is a poem entitled “Let’s Know The Nonmetals”. In your


Science notebook, write down all the nonmetals found in the poem.

“ LET’S KNOW THE NONMETALS”

In our group, there are 7 nonmetallic elements.


We are hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, and
selenium.
We are elements that possess lack metallic characteristics,
One of the periodic table's most amazing classifications.

H is hydrogen, Its atomic number is 1,


Its atomic mass is 1.008, Its symbol's H.
H is the lightest element ever in the periodic table,
H is monatomic and his form's the most abundant chemical substance in the
universe.

C is carbon, Its atomic number is 6,


Its atomic mass is 12, Its symbol is C in the mix.
Carbon is found in fuels such as coal and oil,
Its is a key component of steel, learn more about it when you're able.
N is Nitrogen, Its atomic number is 7.
Its atomic mass is 14, N is its symbol, there's a lot more to this poem.
It is important to the chemical industry,
And it is used to make fertilizers, nitric acid, nylon, dyes, and explosives.

O name's oxygen, It has an atomic number is 8,

5
Its atomic mass is 15 triple 9, The symbol's O, isn't that awesome kid?
She is the 3rd most abundant element in the universe,
After these elements hydrogen and helium, of course.

P is phosphorus, Its atomic number is 15,


Its atomic mass is 30.973, P's its symbol as you see, right?.
It is an important plant nutrient, and red phosphorus is used,
On the side of matchboxes at home, it's what you strike the match to create
fire.

S name is Sulfur, Its atomic number's 16,


Its atomic mass is 32.06, Its symbol's S, this is where it's seen.
It is widely used in the vulcanization of black rubber,
And as a fungicide, and in black gunpowder.

And I am Selenium, my atomic number's 34,


My atomic mass is 78.96, symbol's Se stands for me.
I'm found in soil and I occur naturally.

What is It

Nonmetals Described
Nonmetals are one of the three major kinds of elements found in the
periodic table with metals and metalloids. Most of them are gases at room
temperature. Bromine is the only nonmetal that is liquid by nature. In solid
forms, nonmetals are usually brittle, powdery, and dull to look at. The electrons
of nonmetals are loosely held and are not free to move so they cannot conduct
electricity or even generate heat. They are neither malleable nor ductile.

Properties of Nonmetals
To show how useful nonmetals are in the society, here are some of their
properties:

Table 1. Properties of Nonmetals


General Properties
1. Nonmetals are not lustrous at all when they are in solid forms.
2. Nonmetals can be gases or volatile liquids at room
temperature and others can still be solid. If they are in solid
forms, they tend to become dull, powdery, or brittle
3. Nonmetals break easily. They are not malleable at all.
4. Most nonmetals have low boiling and melting points except for
carbon in the form of diamond.
5. Nonmetals are poor conductors of heat and electricity due to
their loosely held electrons.

. Looking closely at the table above, you will notice that nonmetals have
the opposite features to metals but they have the same important roles in our
society.

Regions of Nonmetals in the Periodic Table

To the right of the heavy ladder-like line which passes along B, Al, Si,
Ge, As, Sb, Te, Po, and At is the exact location of the majority of the nonmetals
in the periodic table. Can you point them one by one?

Figure 1. The Nonmetals in the Periodic Table of Elements


Source: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Periodic_Table_Of_Elements.svg

The nonmetals are carbon, nitrogen, fluorine, helium, neon, phosphorus,


sulfur, chlorine, argon, selenium, bromine, tellurium, iodine, oxygen, xenon,
krypton, radon, astatine, and hydrogen. These nonmetals show the same
characteristics previously discussed. Hydrogen is placed on the leftmost portion
of the periodic table for it displays some features of metals but it is classified as
a nonmetal.

Uses of Nonmetals

Take a look at some examples of nonmetals with their importance in our


daily living.
