The two properties which tell us that copper is a metal and sulphur is a non metal are given below:-

a. Copper

1. Copper is malleable and ductile. It can be hammered into thin sheets and drawn into wires.

2. Copper is a good conductor of heat and electricity.

b. Sulphur

1. Sulphur is neither malleable nor ductile. It is brittle. Sulphur breaks into pieces when hammered or stretched.

2. Sulphur is a bad conductor of heat and electricity.
