Steve glanced out into the hall. Everything that wasn't metal was on fire.

史蒂夫向大厅内张望，看到所有金属物件都熊熊燃烧。

Where non-metal molecules are typically held together by the attraction between a nucleus and a set number of electrons, metal nuclei are surrounded by a sea of shared electrons.

金属分子通常是通过一个原子核和一定数量的电子之间的引力聚集而来，而金属原子核周围充满了共享电子。

China has focused on goods ranging from fish meal to scrap metal. Efforts to try to end the standoff continue.

中主要针对美出口的鱼粉和金属。

Different batteries use different combinations of metals, and sometimes non-metals like graphite, but the basic idea is to use a pair of chemical reactions to generate a stream of electrons.

不同的电池使用不同的金属组合，有时还有金属，比如石墨，但基本原理都是利用一对反应来产生电子流。

Other researchers are taking an interest in non-metallic compounds.

其他研究人员对金属合物很感兴趣。

They make contact with the non-metal part of an electric circuit (those protein wires).

与电路中的金属部分（那些蛋白质丝）接触。

In ionic it's going to be metal and nonmetal.

离子中它将是金属和金属。

I just didn't, don't think I, when we talked about that salt is a broader category of just what you said, a metal on a non-metal, I don't think I've wondered then do they taste salty.

我只是没有， 没想到当我们讨论盐是一个比你说的更广泛的类别时，一个金属与金属的结合， 我不曾想过它们是否会有咸味。

Was clay the greatest non-metallic material that they had, or the material that they had that they were able to create this extraordinary, very sophisticated artwork from?

陶土是他们拥有的最伟大的金属材料，还是他们能够创作出这些极其精美的艺术品的材料？

Covalent bonds tend to form from non-metals and sometimes metalloids, those elements that have both metallic and non-metallic characteristics.

共价键往往由金属元素以及有时由类金属元素（即同时具有金属和金属特性的元素）形成。

Polar covalent formed by the uneven sharing of electrons between two nonmetals or metalloids.

极性共价键是由两个金属或类金属之间不均匀共享电子形成的。

Generally in covalent bonds it's going to be 2 nonmetals.

通常共价键中, 它将是2种金属。

So a salt is a metal plus a non-metal, and it typically is what we would call an ionic bond.

所以，盐是由金属和金属组成的，它通常形成我们所说的离子键。

And ionic formed by the transfer of electrons from a metal to a nonmetal.

离子键是由金属向金属转移电子而形成的。

And remember as we get to zinc we're moving over towards those nonmetals.

请记住, 当我们获得锌时, 我们正转向那些金属。

They all form ions readily when they react with non-metals, and when they do, they always lose electrons, forming cations.

它们与金属反应时很容易形成离子，并且反应过程中总是失去电子，形成阳离子。
