Elements that are insulators are on the right side of the periodic table.
They are not found anywhere on the periodic table. Only elements are in the periodic table. A cation is a positively charged ion. Most of the elements that will form cations are found more or less in the middle of the table except for hydrogen.
Transition metals
One can recognize a periodic trend on the Periodic Table by observing properties of different elements from the left side to the right side of the periodic table.
On the right side of the amphoteric line Non-metallic character increases towards the right and up the periodic table
Metals are found on the left side of the periodic table. They include elements like copper, iron, and gold. Metals tend to be good conductors of heat and electricity and are typically solid at room temperature.
On the left side of the periodic table.
Metals are located on the left side of the Periodic Table.
Non-metals are found on the right side of the periodic table.
Cations are mainly found on the left side of the period table.
Nonmetals are on the right side.

They are not found anywhere on the periodic table. Only elements are in the periodic table. A cation is a positively charged ion. Most of the elements that will form cations are found more or less in the middle of the table except for hydrogen.
The metalloids split the table these are a diagonal group of elements, B, Si, Ge, As, Sb and Te. To their right are the non metals to the left the metals. There are many more metals than any other type of element. See Wikipedia article "Periodic table (metals and non metals)"
The transition metals are the most common, and are found in the middle (groups 3-12) of the periodic table.
