Statistics About The Most Nonmetals Are
The most common nonmetals are oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen, which make up the majority of the Earth's atmosphere.
In this post, we will explore key statistics surrounding nonmetals in the periodic table. From the composition of nonmetals among known elements to their properties and characteristics, we delve into various aspects that define these essential components of chemistry and the natural world.
Statistic 1
"Nonmetals constitute 17 of the 118 known elements on the periodic table."
Statistic 2
"More than 75% of the elements in the periodic table are not nonmetals."
Statistic 3
"Exact 15 of the 17 nonmetal elements are in the p-block of the periodic table."
Statistic 4
"Carbon, the 6th most abundant element in the universe, is a nonmetal."
Statistic 5
"Oxygen, a nonmetal, makes up almost 49.2% of the Earth's crust by mass."
Statistic 6
"Over 75% of the atoms in the human body are made up by two nonmetals, hydrogen and oxygen."
Statistic 7
"There are only 3 nonmetals in the liquid state at room temperature including bromine and astatine."
Statistic 8
"All nonmetals have negative electron affinity with the highest being that of chlorine."
Statistic 9
"Nonmetals generally have a higher ionization energy compared with metals."
Statistic 10
"Only 5 nonmetals are solid at room temperature: carbon, phosphorus, sulfur, selenium, and iodine."
Statistic 11
"Most nonmetals are poor conductors of heat and electricity, with exceptions such as graphite."
Statistic 12
"Nonmetal elements primarily form covalent bonds unlike metals which primarily form ionic bonds."
Statistic 13
"Over 68% of nonmetals are diatomic in their natural state including oxygen, nitrogen and hydrogen."
Statistic 14
"The least reactive of all the nonmetals is the Noble gases, due to their stable electron configuration."
Statistic 15
"Nonmetals generally have less than half the density of metals."
