We cannot determine if nonmetals are strong or not since they exist in any of the 3 states:solid,liquid,or gases.
But generally,nonmetals are characterized that they are non-ductile.
There are some nonmetals that are strong such as:wood and glass,and in the same time there are some nonmetals that are not as strong such as :coal which we can dismantle easily.

Are all noble gases nonreactive?
All noble gases are unreactive at S.T.P. However at high temperature and pressure, xenon and krypton will react with electronegative elements such as flourine and oxygen to form fluorides and oxyfluorides.
What are the metals and non metals in your body?
all are non metals
What is the difference in non metal and metal substances melting points?
Generally, metals have higher melting points compared to non-metals. This is because metals have strong metallic bonds that require more energy to break, while non-metals have weaker intermolecular forces. Additionally, the arrangement of atoms in the crystal lattice of metals allows for efficient heat transfer, contributing to their higher melting points.
Where are the metals and non metals on the periodic table?
metals on left, non-metals on right, some others in middle.
What happens to the atoms of non metals when non metals react with metals?
Atoms of non-metals usually gain or share electrons when they react with other atoms.
What is a force that holds together the atoms substance?
Metal atoms are held together by strong Electrostatic forces that make metals typically strong and solid. Non metals are held together by ether Covalent bonds between two non metals, Ionic bonds between a metal and a non metal.

Are halogens metals or non non-metals?
Non metals
Why group 17 elements are strong non metals while grour 1 elements are strong metals?
Group 17 elements (halogens) are strong non-metals because they have high electronegativity and tend to gain electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. Group 1 elements (alkali metals) are strong metals because they have low electronegativity and tend to lose electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
Are most of the element metals or non metals?
Non metals
Are noble gases non metals or metals?
non metals
What are the metals and non metals in your body?
all are non metals
Which are better metals or non metals?
My opinion would be metal. Since non metals are brittle and dull, I disagree with the non-metals.
Are metalloids metals non metals the same?
They are in between the metals and non metals
Where are the most reactive non metals?
The most reactive non metals are Halogens which may combine most of the metals as well as non metals.
What metals are strong in room temperature?
Metals like steel are strong in room temperature. If you want anymore, search for metals as strong as steel :)
