Yes. There are only about 20 nonmetals and only 7 metalloids. The rest of the elements are metals.

Are there more metalic elements or nonmetalic elements listed on the periodic table?
There are more metals than nonmetals on the periodic table. There are 18 nonmetals, compared to 117 known elements.
Where on the periodic table would you find metals and nonmetals?
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)"
Which are more common metals or nonmetals?
Metal because there the biggest section of elements on the periodic table true statement.
Where are metals located on the periodic chart?
The more left and the more down in the periodic table, you'll find the metals (except hydrogen). Only in the upper right corner (at fluorine) are the nonmetals. On the mid-diagonal in between both corners there is the greatest group containg the metalloids (half metals). But excluded from all this, is the 'noble gas'-group.
Do metals or nonmetals tend to gain electrons more easily?
nonmetals are located in the right side of the periodic table. The Ionization energy(the amount of energy used to remove an electron) tends to increase from left to right across a period.It is difficult to remove the electrons from the right side because they are becoming stable
Are thir more metals or nonmetals in the periodic table?
more metals

What percent of the periodic table is composed of metals while the rest of the table is made up of nonmetals and metalloids?
More individual elements are metals than are either of the other categories given.
Are there more metals or nonmetals?
There are more metals than non-metals. This occurs because of the transition metals group. When looking at a group on the periodic table the transition metals makes up a large portion because they are the atoms that take use of the the d orbital for electrons. The d orbital has room for 10 electrons and therefore there is a large number of transition metals per group.
Is unreactivity a property of metal?
No, because metals are on the left side of the Periodic Table. Therefore, they are reactive. Nonmetals, on the left side of the Periodic Table, are less reactive, because they have more valence electrons.
Which side are the metals and nonmetals?
Non-metals are more or less located in the upper-right quarter segment of the periodic table. The left half and the lower half (about three quarters) of the p.t. are metals.
Are there more metals or non metals on the periodic table?
metals
What do you notice about the boiling points as you move from left to right across the periodic table?
The trend of boiling points across a period in the periodic table should decrease from metals to nonmetals. The trend becomes more complicated between metals, the boiling point of metals tends to increase across a period.
Are there more metals or more non metals on the periodic table?
there r more metals
Are most elements on the periodic table nonmetals?
No, more than three-fourths of the elements are metals. Love, Grahamcracker
