		nonmetal, chemical element possessing certain properties by which it is distinguished from a metal.
		In general, this distinction is drawn on the basis that a nonmetal tends to accept electrons and form negative ions and that its oxide is acidic.
		Nonmetals are poor conductors of heat and electricity (see conduction) and do not have the luster of metals.

	Nonmetal (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Together with the metal s and metalloid s, a nonmetal is one of three categories of chemical element s as distinguished by ionization and bonding properties.
		Nonmetals may form ionic bond s with metals by gaining electron s, or covalent bonds with other nonmetals.
		Many nonmetals (hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine) are diatomic, and most of the rest are otherwise polyatomic.

		Basically, the elements that lack the properties of metals are said to have nonmetallic properties and are therefore called nonmetals.
		All of the group 0 (18) elements (the noble gases--mostly inert) are gases consisting of single atoms.
		The nonmetals also lack the malleability and ductility of the metals.

	Inorganic Nomenclature - Binary A Compounds
		Binary A compounds are two element compounds composed of a Group A Metal chemically bound to a nonmetal.
		Nonmetals are those atoms that stair-step down the Group A elements begining with boron and ending with antimony.
		Fluorine is a group VIIA nonmetal which achieves a noble gas configuration by gaining 1 valence electron, thus forming the fluorine ion.

		When nonmetallic elements act as oxidizing agents, the nonmetal is reduced to its monatomic anion or a protonated form.
		The monatomic nonmetal anions and their protonated forms usually exhibit the lowest possible oxidation number which gives them the ability to transfer electrons back to other materials (act as reducing agents).
		Nonmetals can be divided into two groups based on their redox properties.

		Furthermore, we also examined information regarding types of engines and equipment found in underground metal and nonmetal mines along with their various ventilation systems and concluded that the 2001 final rule was technologically feasible for the mining industry (66 FR 5889).
		The cost for an average underground metal and nonmetal mine was projected to be approximately $128,000 annually primarily for investment in equipment to meet the interim and final concentration limits.
		Furthermore, many metal and nonmetal mines are located in remote areas of the country, at high altitudes, or are subject to extremely hot or cold environments.

		The corresponding annual average fatality rates during this 5-year period were 340 and 300 per 100,000 workers in coal mining and metal and nonmetal mining, respectively.
		Following metal mining, the decreases in lost-workday injury rates were as follows: coal (35%), nonmetal (31%), stone (30%), and sand and gravel mining (24%).
		A 46% decrease was observed for independent contractor workers in metal and nonmetal mining, and a 6% decrease was observed for independent contractor workers in coal mining.

	Typical Acids and Bases
		The electronegativity of the oxygen is much larger than that of the metal, so the electrons tend to remain with the oxygen atom, resulting in the formation of a positive metal ion and the OH ion.
		Nonmetal hydroxides, however, are acids because the difference in the electronegativities between the nonmetal and the oxygen is relatively small.
		The electronegativities of the oxygen is more or less equal to that of the nonmetal, so the electrons are considered to be shared.
