What are the three classes of elements?
The three classes of elements are metals, nonmetals, and metalloids.
Are non metals semiconductors?
Metals are conductors. Semiconductors are usually non-metals or metalloids.
What are the three major groups of elements on the periodic table?
The three classes of periodic elements are:Metals,that usually tend to lose electrons to form positive ions.Semi-metals or MetalloidsNon-metals,that usually tend to accept electrons to become negative ions.
What are the three broad classes on the periodic table?
Metals, metalloids and non-metals
What 3 major groups are the elements on the periodic table separated into?
The 3 major divisions on the periodic table are metals(metalloids), non-metals, and gases.
What is classification for the elements that have properties of both metals and non metals?
Metalloids Metalloids have properties of both metals and non-metals.
Which group of elements shares the same characteristics its both metals and non metals?
Metalloids
Can an element be both metal and non-metal?
no, but there are metalloids, which have properties of both metals and non metals
What are the three classes of elements?
The three classes of elements are metals, nonmetals, and metalloids.
What is classification for elements that have properties of both metals and non metals?
i believe it is metalloids
Are non metals semiconductors?
Metals are conductors. Semiconductors are usually non-metals or metalloids.
Is Nobel gases metals or non metals or metalloids?
Non-metals, they are all gases.
Are semi-metals the same as mixed metals?
They are usually called metalloids. They are in the middle of being a metal and a non-metal
How does the number of valence electrons in atoms of metalloids explain why metalloids are semiconductors?
Metalloids when used is electronics are called semiconductors.
What are the three major groups of elements on the periodic table?
The three classes of periodic elements are:Metals,that usually tend to lose electrons to form positive ions.Semi-metals or MetalloidsNon-metals,that usually tend to accept electrons to become negative ions.
Why aren't metalloids in the metal group?
Because they are neither metals nor non-metals
Are the majority elements in the periodic table called a metals or b metalloids or c non-metals?
Metalloids.
