Are boron and silicon metals?
They are both considered to be Metalloids meaning they have some metal characteristics and some non-metal characteristics.
Elements that lie on the line on the periodic table having both metal and non-metal characteristics are called what?
Metaloids
Can an element be both metal and non-metal?
no, but there are metalloids, which have properties of both metals and non metals
What characteristics of nitrogen make it a non metal?
Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons.It gains 3 electrons to form anio and exhibit non metal properties.
Is sillicon a metal?
Silicon is a metalloid, which is a mix between metal and a non-metal.
Is boron a metal?
Boron is not a metal. It is a metalloid, which means it shares characteristics of both metals and non-metals. Boron is commonly used in a variety of industries, including in the production of ceramics and glass.
Is hydrogen consisdered to be a metal?
No, hydrogen is considered to be strictly a non-metal. Although it can be considered as a group 1 element due to some of its characteristics.
Is helium metal non metal or metalliod?
Helium is classified as a non-metal. It is a noble gas and is characterized by its lack of reactivity and non-metallic properties. Unlike metalloids, which exhibit properties of both metals and non-metals, helium does not possess any metallic characteristics and exists as a gas at room temperature.
Is arsenic considered as a heavy metal?
No, arsenic is a metalloid, which means it has characteristics of both metals and non-metals.
