Dif between metal and non metal on the bases of their chemical properties

Answer» Thanks
Metals\tNon-Metals1\tAll metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides\tAll non-metals react with oxygen to form acidic or neutral oxides.2\tMetals react with water to produce metal oxide (or metal hydroxide) and hydrogen gas.\tNon-metals do not react with water.3\tMetals react with a dilute acid to form a metal salt and hydrogen gas.\tNon-metals do not react with dilute acids .4\tAll metals react with chlorine to form ionic metal chlorides.\tNon-metals react with chlorine to form covalent chlorides.5\tOnly a few metals like Na, K, Ca and Mg react with hydrogen to form metal hydrides.\tNon-metals react with hydrogen to form covalent Hydrides.
Metal react with hydrogen but non metal does not react with it.
