While nonmetals might not sound as intriguing as metals, this engaging title will reveal they are just as fascinating and essential–from hydrogen providing a basis for star formation to carbon allowing all life to exist on Earth! This exciting title includes explanatory text that introduces readers to these elements and many others that make life on Earth as we know it possible. Dynamic sidebars enhance comprehension of the text with descriptions of key topics, definitions of important terms, and ideas for hands-on activities. Each spread also offers two eye-catching images, including colorful photographs and diagrams, to help readers understand nonmetals and make connections to their everyday lives. This volume concludes with an inspiring biographical overview of the life of the scientist who discovered hydrogen, Henry Cavendish.
