what were the slave state that did not secede and join the confederancy
The Border States were a key part of the US Civil War. They were slave states that did not join the Confederacy, it was important for the Union to prevent that they did not secede and join the South.
Missouri, Kentucky, West Virginia, Maryland and Delaware
No. Eleven slave states did secede and join the Confederacy. In three other slave states there was some effort at secession, by part of the people at least, but they are not considered to have left the Union. The men from these states divided, some fighting for the north, some for the south. These were Maryland, Kentucy and Missouri. The slave state of Delaware, seeing how Maryland was punished and prevented from seceding, did not try to secede. And there were still some slaves in some northern states, but not a great many. For instance, there were still a small number of slaves in New Jersey in 1865, when the war ended.
A few states valued their membership in the United States of America more than their 'right' to slavery. These states were Delaware, Kentucky, and Missouri. The state of Maryland was prepared to secede but was prevented by federal troops dispatched to their capital. Washington, DC, while not a state, did permit slavery and did not attempt to join the Confederacy.
The Confederate leaders wanted as many states as possible to join them. Whether non-slave states could join was moot, since all of the non-slave states were in favor of preserving the Union.
