Chemically, metals are defined as elements which form positive ions in solutions and whose soluble oxides are basic. If elements form negative ions in solution or are parts of negative ions and form soluble oxides which are acidic, we shall name them non-metals.

Some elements act as metals under certain conditions and as non-metals under other conditions. Such elements are classified as amphoteric. Another group consists of elements which do not combine with other elements under normal conditions. Until recently, it was believed that these elements could not enter into any chemical combination and they were called the inert elements. Chemists have produced compounds of some of these elements.

Metals are the chemical opposites of non-metals. Metals tend to lend electrons while non-metals tend to borrow or share electrons when they combine with each other to form salts. Metals and non-metals generally differ in physical properties. Metals are good conductors of electricity and heat, non-metals are generally non-conductors or very poor conductors. In the solid state metals have a characteristic luster which non-metals do not have. And in this state metals arc malleable, and ductile, non-metals being brittle, non-malleable and non-ductile. Non-metals generally include the following 22 elements: helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, radon, hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, astatine, oxygen, sulphur, selenium, tellurium, nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, carbon, silicon, and boron, the remaining elements being generally classified as metals, hydrogen having a dual character and being generally included in both groups.

аmphoteric - амфотерний lend- позичати borrow - позичати luster - блиск brittle - крихкий malleable - ковкий

opposite - протилежний ductile - гнучкий share - ділити inert- інертний tend – прагнути, намагатися
