in the zig zag line
Metalloids (B, Si, Ge, As, Sb, Te, Po) are placed in the periodic table - beings chemical elements.
On the left side of the stairs (or the zig zag line) on the periodic table.
Whether an element is a metal, nonmetal, or semimetal. Elements around the zig zag are semimetals Elements to the left of the zig zag (and the majority of elements) are metals Elements on the right of the zig zag are nonmetals
no, they are the semimetals/metalloids.
Binary ionic compounds have 2 elements, the element on the left (cation) should be a metal (left side of the zig zag line), and the other element on the right should be nonmetal (right side of the zig zag line)Binary molecular compounds have 2 NON METAL elements
in the zig zag line
Iron is a transition metal, residing in the center of the periodic table. In the periodic table, metals are on the left, nonmetals are on the right, and the zig-zag line between the two has metalloids along it.
Semi metals are present in zig-zag line in periodic table. It is towards right in periodic table.
Generally, the elements to the right of the zig zag line on the periodic table are non-metals, elements to the left of the zig zag line on the periodic table are metals, and elements on the zig zag line are metalloids with the exception of aluminum, which is a metal.
Generally, the elements to the right of the zig zag line on the Periodic Table are non-metals, elements to the left of the zig zag line on the periodic table are metals, and elements on the zig zag line are metalloids with the exception of aluminum, which is a metal.
nonmetals
Metalloids (B, Si, Ge, As, Sb, Te, Po) are placed in the periodic table - beings chemical elements.
On the left side of the stairs (or the zig zag line) on the periodic table.

The zig-zag line (or sometimes known as the staircase) separates the metals in the periodic table from the non-metals. Metals are present on the left of the zigzag line and non metals to its right. The elements on the staircase are known as metalloids.
There's no reason for it.It was built on the basis of increasing atomic number and then the similarities were observed. However you can say this is because of the presence of the metalloids present b/w them which form the zig-zag line.
