Metals and Non-Metals Concept Map Guide
A metals and non-metals mind map sorts the elements in the periodic table into two main groups. Metals are usually shiny, good conductors of heat and electricity, malleable and ductile. Non-metals are usually dull, poor conductors and brittle when solid. A good map links each group to its physical properties, chemical reactions and typical uses.
- Physical properties: lustre, hardness, conductivity, malleability, ductility
- Chemical properties: reactions with oxygen, water and acids
- Oxides: basic oxides from metals, acidic oxides from non-metals
- Uses: wiring, cookware, packaging, fertilizers, fuels
- Exceptions: metalloids and elements that behave in mixed ways
Use the map to revise before a test by covering one branch and recalling it from memory. To build a version based on your own textbook, upload your notes to CogniGuide and get a personalized map in minutes.

Metals and Non-Metals FAQ
Common questions about the topic and how to build your own map.
What is the main difference between metals and non-metals?
Metals are generally lustrous, malleable, ductile and good conductors of heat and electricity. Non-metals are generally dull, brittle as solids and poor conductors, with some exceptions such as graphite.
Why are metal oxides usually basic?
Metal oxides usually dissolve in water to form alkaline solutions because they react with water or acid to produce hydroxide ions. Non-metal oxides tend to form acidic solutions instead.
Which files can I upload to make my own metals map?
You can upload a PDF, Word (DOCX) or PowerPoint (PPTX) file, a text or Markdown file, or an image of your notes. You can also type the topic.
Is the metals map generator free to use?
Yes, the free plan allows 5 creations a week without payment. From the map you can also turn your notes into a quiz to test yourself.
