Metalloids are known as semi-conductors meaning they can conduct electricity, but they are not good conductors.
Metals are good conductors.
Non-metals are bad conductors.

∙ 10y agoThey are only fair to high (intermediate) conductors of electricity and heat, except that silicon is a good heat conductor.
Metalloids include boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, and tellurium.
