    The answer to your question is:

    Explanation:

    a)

    Metals: are shiny, malleable and ductile, they can conduct electricity and heat, form cations in aqueous solutions.

    Nonmetals: non-lustrous, brittle, not good conductors of heat and electricity, form anions in aqueous solutions.

    b)

    Metals are located in the left side of the periodic table

    Nonmetals are located in the right side of the periodic table.

    c)

    Metal are use to make pans because they are good conductors of heat and also are malleable and ductile.

    Nonmetals are used to make sleeping bags and coolers because they do not conduct heat so they can isolate matter.
