Which elements in the periodic table are nonmetals and which are metalloids?
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.
How can you describe the location ofthe metals nonmetals and metalloids on the periodic table?
The metals are normally found on the left of the Periodic Table, the non-metals on the right and the metalloids in between.
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.
What type of bond is made of nonmetals and metalloids?
The bonds between non metals and metalloids are covalent bonds.
How does the number of valence electrons in atoms of metalloids explain why metalloids are semiconductors?
Metalloids when used is electronics are called semiconductors.
What are the elements called that are between metals and nonmetals?
One name is "metalloids".
Are metalloids metals non metals the same?
They are in between the metals and non metals
What are found between metals and nonmetals?
the metalloids
Elements that are semi conductors and lie between the metals and non metals are?

Which classes of elements lies between the metals and the non metals?
metalloids also called semi-metals
What type of bond is made of nonmetals and metalloids?
The bonds between non metals and metalloids are covalent bonds.
How are non metals different to metals?
metalloids are a cross between metals and nometals, meaning it has properties of BOTH metals and nonmetals.
How does the number of valence electrons in atoms of metalloids explain why metalloids are semiconductors?
Metalloids when used is electronics are called semiconductors.
What term describes elements with properties that fall between those of metals and non metals?
It's called a metalloid(:Hope this helped!*~*
