Metals and non-metals:
Metals have many properties like they are lusterous and are hard. They are also very good conductors of heat and electricity. They are most of the time magnetic also. But this is not for every metal for-example Lithium is soft.
Examples of metals:
Cobalt, iron, copper, plutonium....
Non-metals also have many properties as well. Their properties are pretty much the opposite of metals. They are poor conductors.
Examples of non-metals:
Oxygen, hydrogen, neon.......
Any other questions just type them out and I'll be here.
What are properties of the Metalloids?
Are non-meatals with metallic properties, or metals with out metallic properties.
If you go on this website: http://www.chem.uwec.edu/Chem150_S07/elaborations/unit1/unit-1b-octet-rule/fig2-6.png you will see the Periodic Table of elements, the black line shows metals and non-metals (right non-metals also green) the purple are metalloids.

Metalloids are elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals. They are located in between metals and nonmetals on the periodic table and include elements like silicon, arsenic, and germanium. Metalloids typically have a combination of metallic and nonmetallic properties, such as being semi-conductive in nature.
The major categories of elements on the periodic table are metals, nonmetals, and metalloids. Metals are typically shiny, malleable, and good conductors of heat and electricity. Nonmetals are usually not shiny, brittle, and poor conductors. Metalloids share properties of both metals and nonmetals.
Metals are typically found on the left side of the periodic table, nonmetals are on the right side, and metalloids are found between metals and nonmetals in a diagonal line starting from boron to polonium.
because of the massive amounts of metals and the not-so-effecient matter of small metaloids, certainley metals are the most high numbered, concluding that the metaloids are the least in numbers. You can figure this out by looking at the table in your 7th grade Chemical Bonding Book.
Moving from left to right on the periodic table, the elements generall go from metal to nonmetals.
Noble GasesMetalsNon-Metals
Elements can be classified into metals, nonmetals, and metalloids based on their properties. Metals are typically shiny, malleable, and good conductors of heat and electricity. Nonmetals are typically dull, brittle, and poor conductors. Metalloids have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals.
Metaloids
Metalloids are elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals. They are located in between metals and nonmetals on the periodic table and include elements like silicon, arsenic, and germanium. Metalloids typically have a combination of metallic and nonmetallic properties, such as being semi-conductive in nature.
Nonmetals
metaloids
Metalloids do not contain either metals or nonmetals. They are elements that have properties of both metals and metalloids, and are found between the metals and nonmetals on the periodic table.
The major categories of elements on the periodic table are metals, nonmetals, and metalloids. Metals are typically shiny, malleable, and good conductors of heat and electricity. Nonmetals are usually not shiny, brittle, and poor conductors. Metalloids share properties of both metals and nonmetals.
The three main groups of elements are metals, nonmetals, and metalloids. Metals are typically solid, shiny, malleable, and good conductors of electricity. Nonmetals are generally dull, brittle, and poor conductors of electricity. Metalloids have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals.
metals, non-metals, and metaloids
Yes, metalloids have characteristics of both metals and nonmetals. They have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals, such as being semi-conductive and having a mix of metallic and nonmetallic appearances.
Metals are typically found on the left side of the periodic table, nonmetals are on the right side, and metalloids are found between metals and nonmetals in a diagonal line starting from boron to polonium.
