Metals are relatively good conductor of heat, because the non-localized electrons are free to transport thermal energy.

Each material has an electrical conductivity. It determines the value of the electrical current when an electric potential is applied.

What is the ability to conduct heat and electricity with metalloids?

Metalloids have an intermediate ability to conduct heat and electricity, falling between metals and nonmetals. They have some metallic properties, such as being able to conduct electricity to some extent, but not as effectively as pure metals. Their ability to conduct heat and electricity can vary depending on the specific metalloid.
