Metals are located on the left side of the Periodic Table.
the left side of the preodic table consistes of metals, the right side is of non metals, the middle ones are transition metals.
Metals are typically found on the left-hand side of the periodic table. This includes elements such as lithium, sodium, and iron. Nonmetals are generally found on the right-hand side.
The metalloids split the table these are a diagonal group of elements, B, Si, Ge, As, Sb and Te. To their right are the non metals to the left the metals. There are many more metals than any other type of element. See Wikipedia article "Periodic table (metals and non metals)"
metals
left
In the periodic table metals are on the left of the line. But elements touching it are called semi metals and have properties of both metals and nonmetals
Metals
alkali metals
Non-metals are found on the right side of the periodic table.
Transition metals
The three types of elements are Metal, Non-metal, and Metalloid. The Metals located on the left side of the periodic table, all the way to aluminum. The metalloids are located along a stairstep line from between aluminum and boron, to between polonium and astatine. Everything to the right of the metalloids are nonmetals. Don't forget hydrogen, its way on the left side, but it is a nonmetal.
Metals especially the alkali metals and alkaline earths.
