where are non-metal elements located on the Periodic table of elemens?
441550
The nonmetals are halogens, noble gases and the following elements in order of atomic number (nonmetals as chemical series):\n\nhydrogen (H) \ncarbon (C) \nnitrogen (N) \noxygen (O) \nphosphorus (P) \nsulfur (S) \nselenium (Se) \n\nhere's an example:\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table_%28metals_and_non-metals%29

There are 118 elements on the Periodic Table.

The Periodic Table of Elements organizes all the elements known to man. There are certain characteristics of each elements that they are grouped by. For example, the last column on the right is called the "Noble Gasses" becase they are all gasses in their natural state, and they're atoms have every electron in each orbital making them the most stable elements.

It's all the elements in the d-block of the periodic table. Basically, the group starting from column three to column twelve. These transition metals commonly have many oxidation states and have either partially filled d-orbitals or full d-orbitals (like mercury). They also form complex ions quite readily.\n\nIf all of that doesn't make sense, just remember it's the metals in that "lowered" part in the middle.

Any two elements from different sides of the periodic table. More specifically, one from the metal category and one from the nonmetal category.\n\nEDIT: brwneyes, sodium chloride is one example of an ionic bond, not the only kind of ionic bond.

metal: simple element at room temp. except galium, mercury and cesium\n\nnonmetal: simple elemnent at the three states of matter

You should recognize that, when they combine with nonmetals, metals tend to LOSE electrons and form POSITIVE ions. Nonmetals, on the other hand, tend to GAIN electrons and form NEGATIVE ions.\n\nGet an "A".

metals: give up electrons in ionic bonds. They also form metallic bonding.  sodium, potassium, lithium, to name just a few. There are a lot of metals\n\nnonmetals: this is more more difficult group to describe. They materials like to form covalent bonds--a joint sharing of two electrons. Both hydrogen and oxygen are nonmetals. But hydrogen gives up its electon in an ionic bond. For example HCl. It that repect it acts similar to a metal. Carbon is also a nonmetal\n\nMetaloid: silicon, germanium, boron, arsenic, antamony. These elements are right on the line between metals and nonmetals. As a result they make good semi conductors.

Cause they are not metals...?\nI don't really understand what you're asking, but what I can tell you is that S and I are both on the right side of the periodical table and therefore both are non-metals.

Metals have 1 or 2 or 3 electrons in their outer shell. Non metals have 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 electrons in their outer shell. (Strictly speaking, elements with 4 electrons in their outer shell are semi-metals or metalloids.)

Los Alamos national lab has a good periodic table/ elemental factoids.\n\nLanthanum is La.  It is the beginning of the "Lanthanides".

nonmetals have much higher ionization energies than metals do. this is because non-metals have more protons in their nucleuses to attract their electrons with. metals do not have as many, as compared to the rows they are in, so the electrons will move away from the nucleus of the metal if given a little push.

Solid or gaseous, depending on what the question means when refering to non-metals:  There are 11 gases total out of the entire table (6 are nobel gases) and only 2 liquids..mercury and bromine.  The true non-metals comprise only 7 elements, and only 3 of those (hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen) are gases.  If you takea  looser definition of non-metals, which includes the true nonmetals plus the halogens and noble gases, the the answer is gaseous.  From the wording of the question, I would think they were trying to get you to say gaseous.

While I don't particularly feel like doing the work for you, this site gives information on why all of the elements are named as they are.\n\nhttp://www.ktf-split.hr/periodni/en/

Mercury\n\nA heavy, silvery, transition metal, mercury is one of five elements that are liquid at or near standard room temperature (the others are the metals caesium, francium, and gallium, and the nonmetal bromine)

+2.\n\n(The element is never found as a free element but does occur in the minerals columbite ((Fe,Mn)(Nb,Ta)2O6), columbite-tantalite or coltan ((Fe,Mn)(Ta,Nb)2O6), pyrochlore ((Na,Ca)2Nb2O6OH,F), and euxenite ((Y,Ca,Ce,U,Th)(Nb,Ta,Ti)2O6). )2 in subscript.
