They are only fair to high (intermediate) conductors of electricity and heat, except that silicon is a good heat conductor.

Metalloids include boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, and tellurium.

How can an elements proprties by identified?

well it is either metal, nonmetal, metalloids. a metal is shiny, conducts heat well, conducts electricity well and malleable. non metal is dull, poor conductor of heat, poor conductor of electricity, and brittle. metalloids has some shine, somewhat malleable, semi- conductor of heat, semi-conductor of electricity.


Does magnesium conduct heat and electricity?

Magnesium is a good conductor of heat but a poor conductor of electricity. This is because it has mobile electrons that can transfer thermal energy effectively but its electron configuration limits its ability to conduct electricity well.


Are metalloids the best conductors of heat and electricity?

No, metalloids are not the best conductors of heat and electricity. Metals are generally better conductors of heat and electricity compared to metalloids. Metalloids have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals.
