What is metalloide?
An element which exhibits the external characteristics of a metal but behaves chemically both as a metal and as a non metal.
When an atom of one element combines chemically with an atom of another element both atoms usually attain the stable highest energy level configuration of a?
molecule
Which element has a black dull surface and it conducts electrical current well A metal non metal or a metalloid?
This element is a metalloid as it has properties (dull but conducts electrical current) from both metals and non-metals.
Can an element be both metal and non-metal?
no, but there are metalloids, which have properties of both metals and non metals
What if your friend tells you that a shiny element has to be a metal do you agree?
No; think of carbon. This is a non-metallic element; it exists in the forms of diamond and graphite - both "shiny" substances.

Why a metal alloy behaves differently to a pure metal?
A metal alloy behaves differently than a pure metal because the different chemical properties of the metals in an alloy both contribute to the alloy's properties. Certain alloys may be stronger than the original metals because one metal may fill a "gap" in the other's structure. Of course, other properties besides strength are also changed in an alloy.
What is a metalloi?
A metalloid is a chemical element that has a mixture of both metal and nonmetal characteristics
Are copper chloride and solid metal element are same?
No. Copper chloride isn't an element, since it has both copper and chlor in it.
Is spoonful of salt in water compound or element?
The salt and water separately are both compounds (chemically bonded), ie; are different elements put together. Salt in water is a mixture that is not chemically bonded and can be separated easily. :)
Is gold and silver a metal element?
