One name is "metalloids".

Metalloids
Elements to the left of the stair-step line are metals and to the right are the nonmetals.
Metalloids do not contain either metals or nonmetals. They are elements that have properties of both metals and metalloids, and are found between the metals and nonmetals on the periodic table.
The halogen elements are a subset of the nonmetals.
Elements that have some characteristics of a metal and some characteristics of a nonmetal are called semimetals or metalloids.
The three classes of elements are metals, nonmetals, and metalloids.
These elements are metalloids.
As we look across the periodic table from left to right, we see metals on the left, transition metals through the middle and nonmetals on the right. What we left out was that group of elements between the transition metals and the nonmetals, and these semimetals are called metalloids.Metaloids have properties that are in between those of transition metals and nonmetals, or perhaps properties that are some combination of those of transition metals and nonmetals. The elements in this group include boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony and tellurium.
- The Group 1A elements are called alkali metals. - The Group 2A elements are called alkaline earth metals. - The nonmetals of Group 7A are called halogens. - The Group 8A elements are called the Noble Gases
These elements are called metalloids.
Nonmetals lack most of the properties of a metal.
metals elements conduct electricity better than nonmetals elements but not as well as metalloid elements
Moving from left to right on the periodic table, the elements generall go from metal to nonmetals.
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.
Elements to the left of the stair-step line are metals and to the right are the nonmetals.
Metalloids do not contain either metals or nonmetals. They are elements that have properties of both metals and metalloids, and are found between the metals and nonmetals on the periodic table.
Metalloids
Along the Border between the Metals and nonmetals are seven elements called metalloids. - Satchi <3
