• Metalloids: usually form covalent bonds with atoms of metals, nonmetals and other metalloids. They can easily take electrons from metals and lose electrons to nonmetals.
• Metalloids: usually form covalent bonds with atoms of metals, nonmetals and other metalloids. They can easily take electrons from metals and lose electrons to nonmetals.
They form because they want their valence shell to be full. Metals usually lose valence electrons because they want to stabilize their valence shell.
Metalloids depends because they have different properties of metals and non metals.

What type of elements (metals metalloids or nonmetals) from ionic bonds with metals?
non-metals
What type of bond is made of nonmetals and metalloids?
The bonds between non metals and metalloids are covalent bonds.
What type of element has some of the characteristics of metals and some of nonmetals?
Metalloids have characteristics of both metals and non-metals. They are located on the staircase of the periodic table. Some examples of metalloids are boron, silicon, arsenic, etc.
What type of bonding exists in the CH chains in polymers?
in polymers you have covalent bonding between the atoms of C & H as both are not metals.
What type of bond does nitrogen dioxide have?
I think the bonding is covalent as it is between two non-metals
What type of element are their?
Elements can be classified as metals, metalloids, and non-metals.
What type of elements (metals metalloids or nonmetals) from ionic bonds with metals?
non-metals
Is metalloids a type of element?
Yes, metalloids are elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals.
What type of bond is made of nonmetals and metalloids?
The bonds between non metals and metalloids are covalent bonds.
What type of element has some of the characteristics of metals and some of nonmetals?
Metalloids have characteristics of both metals and non-metals. They are located on the staircase of the periodic table. Some examples of metalloids are boron, silicon, arsenic, etc.
Is metallic bonding between metals or non metals?
between metals
What type of elements are involved in ionic bonding?
metals and non-metals.
What type of elements include metals metalloids and nonmetals CATAlyst or representative or transition?
catalyst
Which type elements are used as semiconductors?
Metalloids. They are squeezed between metals and non-metals in the periodic table. They include silicon and germanium.
What type of bonding take place in metals?
In metals there is metallic bonding, in which all the metal atoms contribute valence electrons to a commonly shared electron cloud.
What is an element that has some characteristics of metals and non-metals?
Elements that have some characteristics of a metal and some characteristics of a nonmetal are called semimetals or metalloids.
Most metals have high melting points. Which type of bonding accounts for this property?
Metals have a specific metallic bond.
