alkali metals, alkali earth metals, and some transition metals.. that is on the left side if you divide the Periodic Table in two.
the nonmetallic elaments are on the right side of the periodic table
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.

metals
Periodic table consists of elements not cations. However group 1 and group 2 elements (left side of the periodic table) are elements which will form cations easily.
The elements on the right side of the periodic table with electrons sequentially filling orbitals in their valence are known as the "p-block elements". These elements include groups 13 to 18 on the periodic table.
Elements on the left side of the Periodic Table are "Alkali Metals". There is also one non-metal element. H(hydrogen)
Non-metals are found on the right side of the periodic table.
Gaseous elements are typically found on the right side of the periodic table, in the nonmetals group.
The group on the right side of the periodic table are the noble gases.
metals
Elements on the left side of the periodic table are typically metals, such as alkali metals and alkaline earth metals. These elements are known for their high reactivity and tendency to form positive ions. They are good conductors of electricity and heat.
