Materials that are poor conductors of electricity are generally
considered nonmetals. One important use of nonmetals is the ability
to insulate against current flow. The Earth's atmosphere is
composed of nonmetallic elements, but lightning can break down the
electron bonds and allow huge voltages to make their way to the
ground. Water in its pure form is nonmetallic, though it almost
always contains impurities called electrolytes that allow for an
electric field.
With an exploration of the benefits and challenges to society,
health, and the environment, Nonmetals provides readers with new
developments in the research of nonmetals, including where they
came from, how they fit into our current technological society, and
where they may lead us. Written in an easy-to-read format, this new
full-color volume discusses new developments and dilemmas; past,
present, and future uses of nonmetals in science and technology;
and much more. Nonmetals explored in this volume include hydrogen,
carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, oxygen, sulfur, and selenium.
