metalloid

Answer 1

Answer : Option C) Non metal.

Explanation : A non metal is the one which does has poor thermal conductivity, poor electrical conductivity, are usually brittle solids which are not malleable or ductile, they have little or no metallic luster at all, and they gain electrons easily.
