Yes, 3 or 4 times as many elements are metallic.
Note, the whole left AND bottom portions of the Periodic Table are metals.

Are nonmetals more electronegative than metals?
Yes, non-metals are more electronegative than metals. Fluorine is the most electronegative element, and it is a nonmetal.
Are there more metalic elements or nonmetalic elements listed on the periodic table?
There are more metals than nonmetals on the periodic table. There are 18 nonmetals, compared to 117 known elements.
Use ionization energy to explain why metals lose electrons more easily than nonmetals?
Metals lose electrons more easily than the non-metals because they require less ionization energy compared with the non-metals. The metals require less ionization energy to lose the electrons than though gain the electrons unlike the non-metals.
Are there more nonmetals than metals on the periodic table?
Yes. There are only about 20 nonmetals and only 7 metalloids. The rest of the elements are metals.
Why non metals found in more compounds than metals?
Even though there are about five times more elements that are metals than nonmetals, there are more nonmetals than metals found in compounds. Nonmetals form many more compounds than metals because living organisms are composed almost entirely of nonmetals. There are more than 8.7 billion living organisms on Earth.
Are there more non-metal elements than metallic ones?
there are more metals than non-metals on the periodic table
Are the non metals not that important?
Nothing in the World is UNIMPORTANT.We need more non metals than metals....our life is the proof
Would you expect nonmetals to have larger electron affinities than metals?
Yes. Non metals have larger electron affinity than metals as non metals accept electrons more easily than metals.
Are metals most known elements?
yes metals are more common than non-metals
Are ther more metals than non metals in the periodic table?
yes
Are metals more important than non metals to society and why?
This distinction is not adequate.
Are nonmetals more electronegative than metals?
Yes, non-metals are more electronegative than metals. Fluorine is the most electronegative element, and it is a nonmetal.
Are there more metalic elements or nonmetalic elements listed on the periodic table?
There are more metals than nonmetals on the periodic table. There are 18 nonmetals, compared to 117 known elements.
Use ionization energy to explain why metals lose electrons more easily than nonmetals?
Metals lose electrons more easily than the non-metals because they require less ionization energy compared with the non-metals. The metals require less ionization energy to lose the electrons than though gain the electrons unlike the non-metals.
Why non metals have low density?
That is not a reliable discrimination. Astatine and Radon have much more mass than the majority of metals. And Lithium and Magnesium are lighter than many non - metals.
Is a semi metal hard?
Their hardness will be less than that of metals but more than that of non metals. Hence the name, semi metals or metalloids.
Are there more metals or nonmetals?
There are more metals than non-metals. This occurs because of the transition metals group. When looking at a group on the periodic table the transition metals makes up a large portion because they are the atoms that take use of the the d orbital for electrons. The d orbital has room for 10 electrons and therefore there is a large number of transition metals per group.
