The electrons in a metal can leave the atom and move about in the metal as free electrons.
While atoms in non-metals are bonded. Heat energy is passed along by vibartions as the bonds between the non-metals atoms are shaken.
Conduction in metals is faster than in non-metals. Making metals good conductors and making non-metals poor conductors.

What are similarities of metals metalloids and nonmetals?
Some similarities of metals, nonmetals, and metalliods are that they all have a sound when hit, and all have a grayish like color.
Can elements be classified as metals nonmetals or metalloids?
Yes they can, all of them. Metals, nonmetals, and metalloids are three different types of elements on the periodic table. One of the differences between them is the types of bonds they share with eachother: ionic, covalent, or metallic.
Which elements in the periodic table are nonmetals and which are metalloids?
Non metals have properties opposite those of the metals . The metalloids, or semimetals, have properties that are somewhat of a cross between metals and nonmetals.
How can you describe the location ofthe metals nonmetals and metalloids on the periodic table?
The metals are normally found on the left of the Periodic Table, the non-metals on the right and the metalloids in between.
