1) Metals tend to have a higher melting and boiling point compared to nonmetals.
2) Metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity, while nonmetals are poor conductors.
3) Metals are typically malleable and ductile, which means they can be easily shaped and stretched, while nonmetals are brittle and not easily deformed.
4) Nonmetals tend to have lower density compared to metals.
5) Metals tend to form cations (positively charged ions) in chemical reactions, while nonmetals tend to form anions (negatively charged ions).
All of the above statements correctly compare metals and nonmetals.
