Can a element be a metal and a non metal

Chemistry
1 answer:
Dmitry [639]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

no

Explanation:

because in the periodic table there is a section for metals and a section for non metals. 'non' implies that it is not a metal and having an element be both metal and non metal would be contradictory.

Which statement is true about a proton and an electron?
tatyana61 [14]

Answer: (3) They have different masses and the same charges.

Explanation:

Atoms are mainly composed of three main types of particles (in fact there are more particles that are smaller and make up these main particles): electrons, protons and neutrons.

In the specific case of  <u>electrons</u> and <u>protons</u>, <u>both have the same charge, but electrons have the opposite sign</u>. This means a proton has an electric charge of  +1 and an electron has an electric charge of  −1.

On the other hand, <u>protons have more mass than electrons.</u> In fact, thetex]mass of an electron is about approximately \frac{1}{2000} the mass of a proton, this means these negative charged particles contribute almost nothing to the total mass of an atom (unlike protons, which together with neutrons, make up virtually all of the mass of an atom).

However, each atom that is electrically neutral has the same quantity of electrons as protons.

How do the densities of the two objects compare?
Marizza181 [45]
Compare the density of the object in question to the density of water. If its density is less than water, it will float. For example, oak floats because its density is 0.7 g/cm³. If the density of an object is greater than water, it will sink.
