Which of the following is a characteristic of most non-metals and is not a characteristic of most metals? a. replaces the hydrogen in acids to form stable compounds b. is malleable and ductile c. has a negative charge when a current is run through its solution d. can conduct electricity and heat

The correct answer is (C)

non- metals have a negative charge when a current is run through its solution.

because the non-metals gain electrons as it has a higher electronegativity

than metals. so non-metals have negative charge in the solution because its

gain electrons and electrons have a negative charge. non-metals are poor

electrical and thermal conductors. example:

S- (sulfur) , He-(Helium), N- (nitrogen)

c. electrical charges of ionic bonds.

i hoped this , can i get brainliest plzgod bless you
