Online notes for 9th class science - Is Matter Around Us Pure

In ths article, we have discussed the 'Non Metals'.
Non Metals : A non-metal is an element that is neither malleable /ductile and they are not good conductors of electricity. Eg: – Krypton, xenon, diamond, graphite etc. They are the allotropic forms of carbon. All the nonmetals are solids or gases, except bromine which is a liquid non-metal at room temperature.
  • Non Metals are not lustrous- Nonmetals do not have a shiny They have a dull appearance. Iodine is a nonmetal having a lustrous appearance. It has a shiny surface as metals have.
  • Non –Metals are generally soft– Most of the nonmetals are soft they can easily be cut with a knife. Carbon is the only nonmetal which is hard. Diamond is the exception which is extremely hard natural substance.
  • Non Metals are not strong- Nonmetals cannot hold large weights. They have very low tensile strength.
  • Non metals are not malleable, they are brittle- Non metals cannot be beaten into thin sheets with a hammer. They break into small pieces when hammered. Sulphur and phosphorus are brittle. They break into pieces when the hammer is a strike on them.
  • Non metals are not ductile- It means that nonmetals cannot be drawn into wires. They are easily snapped on stretching. On stretching, the nonmetal breaks into pieces.
  • Nonmetals are bad conductors of heat and electricity- It means the nonmetals do not allow heat and electricity to pass through them. Diamond and graphite are the forms of nonmetal which are good conductors of electricity. This is a reason why graphite is used for making electrodes.

Magnetic and non-magnetic material  Class 6 Science A magnet is a substance that is drawn to certain magnetic materials like iron, cobalt, and nickel. Magnets have the ability to draw iron to them. Natural magnets are rocks that naturally draw iron. Non-magnetic materials include things like wood, rubber, coins, feathers, leather, etc. that are not drawn to iron. Magnet characteristics It pulls magnetic materials, such as iron. The magnet's two ends are referred to as its poles. The magnet's diametrically opposed poles are drawn together. Heating, hammering, or dropping causes it to lose its characteristics. On the basis of properties types of Magnets Temporary magnets are those magnets that are magnetic for only a little duration. Typically, iron, cobalt, or nickel are used to make them. When they are close to the powerful magnet, they act like a magnet. When they are yanked away from the powerful magnet, they stop being magnetic. Permanent magnets are magnets that have magne...
