Elements with properties of both metals and nonmetals are called metalloids. They are located (rather conveniently) on the "stairstep" on the Periodic Table that separates metals and nonmetals. The metalloids are as follows:
Scientists also suspect polonium is a metalloid, but they can't be sure as polonium is hard to test (it's very radioactive!).
metaloids are elements which are epitomized by both the characteristics of a metal and a non metal. looking at the periodic table on the right hand side there is a line and a group of elements which are in a specified color. those elements are refered to as metaloids. elements on the right side of the line are characterized more by properties of a nonmetal than a metal and elements on the lefthand side of the line are characterized more by properties of a metal than a non metal.
Mercury? its a liquid metal It has metal properties and liquid properties right? someone let me know.
They are called metalloids. Ga,Ge are few examples for them.
Metaloid
Metalloids
Nitrogen
The elements that show properties of both metals and nonmetals are referred to as metalloids and include, boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, polonium, tellurium, and antimony.
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.
Elements having properties of both non-metals and metals are called Metalliods. Examples are boron, germanium, arsenic, silicon, antimony, etc.
We generally refer to these elements as semiconductors. There is something akin to a "diagonal line of elements" in the periodic table that separates the metals from the nonmetals. Elements on the left of this diagonal are metals, and elements on the right are nonmetals. The elements that make up this diagonal are boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, tellurium, polonium, and astatine, and they have both metallic and nonmetallic properties. awesome mean something good.
Metalloids
Yes, metalloids are elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals.
The elements that show properties of both metals and nonmetals are referred to as metalloids and include, boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, polonium, tellurium, and antimony.
The metalloids have properties of both metals and nonmetals.
An element that has properties of both metals and non-metals is called Metalloid. Example is Germanium.
The elements on the periodic table are ordered from left to right as metals, metalloids, and nonmetals. The left side consists mostly of metals, which are typically shiny, malleable, and good conductors of heat and electricity. In the middle, we have metalloids, which possess properties of both metals and nonmetals. The right side contains nonmetals, which are generally poor conductors of heat and electricity and have varying physical properties.
Nonmetals.
i think they have properties of both metals and nonmetals .
