Metals are elements that are shiny, good conductors of heat and electricity, malleable, and ductile. Nonmetals are elements that are poor conductors of heat and electricity and are brittle in solid form. Metalloids have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals and can exhibit characteristics of both.

An ionic bond.
An ionic bond forms between a metal and a nonmetal when the metal atom transfers one or more electrons to the nonmetal atom. This transfer of electrons results in the formation of positively charged cations and negatively charged anions, which are then attracted to each other due to their opposite charges, forming the ionic bond.
When nonmetals bond with metals the nonmetals will take electrons from the metal to fill their electron shell and empty the shell of the metal. The electrical attraction of the (+) charged metal and the (-) charged nonmetal form an ionic bond between the two.Nonmetals share electrons in a covalent bond.
No, KBr (potassium bromide) is an ionic compound composed of a metal (potassium) and a nonmetal (bromine). Ionic bonds are formed between a metal and a nonmetal, where electrons are transferred from the metal to the nonmetal. Covalent bonds are formed between two nonmetals, where electrons are shared.

A metalloid is a chemical element with properties that are in-between or a mixture of those of metals and nonmetals, and which is considered to be difficult to classify unambiguously as either a metal or a nonmetal. The six elements commonly recognized as metalloids are boron, silicon,germanium, arsenic, antimony and tellurium.
