These elements are called metalloids. On the Periodic Table, metalloids can be found starting at Boron going down and to the right in a zig-zag pattern. Elements that are metalloids are Boron, Silicon, Germanium, Arsenic, Antimony, Tellurium, and Polonium.

What group of elements share characteristics of with both metals and nonmetals?

they share different metals together


Which group of elements share characteristics of metals and nonmetals-?

Metalloids, like silicon and arsenic, share characteristics of both metals and nonmetals. They have properties of both groups, such as being semiconductors (like nonmetals) while also having some metallic luster and conductivity.


If Compared to metals and nonmetals how do atoms of semimetals behave when combining with elements of other elements?

They can either lose or share electrons when they combine with other elements. So, depending on the conditions , these elements can behave as either metals or nonmetalss. Durr !


What happens to the atoms of most nonmetals when the react with other elements?

Something that can happen is they can gain, lose, or share four elements.


What happens to the atoms most nonmetals when they react with other elements?

Something that can happen is they can gain, lose, or share four elements.


Which elements form covalent elements?

Nonmetals such as carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, and hydrogen typically form covalent bonds when they bond with each other. These elements share electrons to fill their outer electron shells and create stable molecules.


Which group of elements shares characteristics with the both metals and nonmetals?

Metalloids or semimetals are elements that share characteristics with both metals and nonmetals. They are found along the staircase on the periodic table, separating the metals from the nonmetals. Metalloids have properties intermediate between those of metals and nonmetals, such as being semi-conductive.


Which group of elements share characteristics with both metals an nonmetals?

Metalloids, such as silicon, boron, and arsenic, share characteristics with both metals and nonmetals. They have properties of both groups, such as being semi-conductive like nonmetals but also having metallic luster like metals.


Which shares electrons metals nonmetals or metalloids?

Metals typically share electrons by forming metallic bonds, with the electrons moving freely among the metal atoms. Nonmetals share electrons through covalent bonds, where atoms share electrons to achieve stability. Metalloids can share electrons with both metals and nonmetals, depending on the specific properties of the element.


What type of bond does NO2 have?

covalent, because the elements are both nonmetals. If it was a metal it would be a ionic bond.


What type of elements do covalent bonds form between?

Rule of thumb answer is covalent bonds form between non metal elements.


What happens to atoms of most nonmetals when they react with other elements?

They tend to gain electrons when reacting with a metal. Metals generally are short of a full octet by 1 to 4 valence electrons. It is easier to drop 2 electrons than try to gain 6 electrons. The elements in group four can go either way, but the other metals will give up electrons, and non-metals will take them.
