left mostly. although there is 1 nonmetal, the metals are located on the far left side. there are also transition metals which are located in the center. but there are some semimetals located on the right side. there is no set place for all the metals do to that the Periodic Table is organzied by Atomic Mass and number of protons.
Non-metals are placed at the right hand side of the periodic table.
Metals
metals are on the right side and non-metals are on the left side.
There is a stair in the Periodic Table running along groups 13 to 17. The elements on the stairs are metalloids whereas the elements to its right are non-metals. Metals lie on the left side of the stairs.
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)"
On some periodic tables metals have a different color.
On the periodic table metals are listed on the left side.
Becasus they are on the right hand side of the periodic table
Nonmetals are located in the right corner of the periodic table of Mendeleev. See the link bellow for a periodic table. What? The nonmetals are located on the right of the periodic table, such as oxygen, nitrogen and chlorine.
Metals especially the alkali metals and alkaline earths.
Metals are located in the left hand side of the periodic table, non metals are located on the right and metalloids are located in between as a 'bridge'.
The elements that are found on the left side of the periodic table are alkali metals.
