Respuesta :
The pure substances of a single type of atom that consists of the same number of protons in their nucleus are called elements. They are the most uncomplicated form and cannot be divided into any other smaller parts by common chemical reactions.
Sulphur (S) is a brittle and non-conducting element.
What are the properties of the non-metals?
- Non-metals have various properties like malleability, ductility, conductivity, brittle etc. and differ from metals based on this as well as the chemical properties.
- The non-metals are brittle that is they can break easily and cannot be rolled into sheets as they are not malleable or ductile and breaks when a force with a hammer or other objects are applied on them.
- They are not good conductors of electricity and heat as they resist the heat and charge applied to them as they do not transmit them across their structure making them good insulators.
- Neon is gas at STP, Aluminum is a good conductor and potassium is not brittle hence they are incorrect.
Therefore, Sulphur being a non-metal is a brittle and bad conductor.
