What are the metaloids?
Metaloids are elements that have characteristics of both metals and non-metals.
What is classification for the elements that have properties of both metals and non metals?
Metalloids Metalloids have properties of both metals and non-metals.
Alloys have the characteristic properties of which class of elements?
metals
Do elements of the same group or period have more similar characteristics?
Groups. For example, the halogens share properties, the noble gases share properties.
What is classification for elements that have properties of both metals and non metals?
i believe it is metalloids
What are the metaloids?
Metaloids are elements that have characteristics of both metals and non-metals.
Do elements that have some properties of metals and some properties of non metals are called halogens?
No, they are not.
What are the different categories are the elements put into?
Metals, nonmetals, and metalloids which are elements that have some of the same properties as metals but not all properties to make them a metal
What is classification for the elements that have properties of both metals and non metals?
Metalloids Metalloids have properties of both metals and non-metals.
Elements in the same family have similar what?
Elements in the same family-assuming family means classifications such as non-metals, metals-have similar properties.
What metals are pure metals?
No such thing, because when you zoom in down to the nano scale gold is not gold anymore as its properties change at the nano scale.
Elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals?
Metalloids
Alloys have the characteristic properties of which class of elements?
metals
What are metals and non-metals and metaloids?
Metals are elements that are usually malleable, ductile, conductive of heat and electricty, and lusterous. Non metals are elements that do not exhibit these characteristics. Metaloids are elements with intermediate properties.
What is classification for elements that have properties of both metals and non metals?
i believe it is metalloids
Do elements of the same group or period have more similar characteristics?
Groups. For example, the halogens share properties, the noble gases share properties.
Which class of elements have both the properties of metals and non metals?
Conducts heat and electricity very poorly.
