They are Metals
between the metals and the nonmetals along a diagonal line running roughly from boron at the top center roughly to selenium at the right.
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.
Metaloids are elements that have characteristics of both metals and non-metals.
If you are referring to the periodic table, then metals and non-metals, though if that is the case I should remind you that metalloids are also a category. Though if you were asking more broadly about molecules, as this category would suggest, you're probably looking for organic and inorganic.
Solid metals are hard,shiny solids. They are good conductors of electricity and are malleable and ductile. In contrast to metals solid nonmetals are dull. Because they are brittle and powdery they are neither malleable nor ductile. The electrons in most nonmetals are tightly attracted and are restricted to one atom.Gas, liquid or solid
Metaloids
The 3 main categories are Metal, Nonmetals and Metalloids
Nonmetals
metaloids
Noble GasesMetalsNon-Metals
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.
Well, several are, and from left to right. Alkali metals Alkaline earth metals. Transition metals. Metaloids. Nonmetals. Halogens. Nobel gasses.
the two groups of metals is the Lanthanide series and the Actinide series.
Metals, nonmetals and noble gases.Gases, liquids and solids.
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.
