Characteristics of metalloids?

Metalloids, also called semimetals, have the characteristics of both metals and non-metals. Three characterics of metalloids are insulate, conduct electricity, and its elements are Silicon and Boron.


What is indium ability to conduct electricity?

Indium is a good conductor of electricity. It is often used in electronics and certain types of electrical components due to its high electrical conductivity.


why does metal's electrical conductivity gets better when the temperature is cooler?

First, let me explain why metals generally conduct heat better than other solids do. In metals, some of the electrons (often one per atom) are not stuck to individual atoms but flow freely among the atoms. Of course, that's why metals are such good conductors of electricity.


What are nonmetallic solids?

carbon


What are the properties of metals-?

They are a good conductor of heat and electricityThey are often shinyThey are ductilethey are malleableProperties of metals include the fact that they are generally shiny, malleable, and hard.


Are alkali metals thermal or electrical conductivity?

Alkali metals exhibit high thermal and electrical conductivity due to the presence of a single valence electron that can easily flow and carry heat or electricity through the material. This is why alkali metals such as lithium, sodium, and potassium are often used in batteries and other electronic applications.


Why aluminium hangers doesn't conduct electricity?

Aluminium hangers do conduct electricity, as aluminium is a good conductor of electricity. The reason you may not experience an electric shock when touching an aluminium hanger is because it is often coated with a non-conductive material, such as paint or plastic, which prevents direct contact with the aluminium.


What are the generalcharacteristics of the non-metals?

Non-metals typically do not conduct electricity, are not malleable or ductile, react with oxygen to form acidic oxides and with other non-metals to make covalent, volatile compounds. They react with metals to form ionic substances. They are usually low melting solids or gases at room temperature.


Why shouldn't you use metals to conduct static electricity?

Metals are perfectly fine if all you want is to discharge the static electricity, but they conduct so well that the discharge often results in a very high current spark.To reduce the possibility of such sparks (which can trigger explosions, damage electronics, etc.) it is better to use high resistance dissipative materials (e.g. treated plastics, humidifiers, air ionizers, in-line megohm resistors on wriststraps, etc.) to slowly discharge the static electricity.


What are the special characteristic of metal and non metal?

Metals are often hard. They conduct both heat and electricity. They often have high densities, high melting points, and high boiling points. And always loose electrons when bonding. Non-metals are the opposite of all the above characteristics.


Are thermal conductors often metals?

Yes, they conduct heat well.


Is aluminum electrically conductive?

Yes...all metals are will conduct electricity.
