The three main categories of elements on the periodic table are metals, metalloids, and nonmetals.
Non metals have properties opposite those of the metals . The metalloids, or semimetals, have properties that are somewhat of a cross between metals and nonmetals.
The metals are normally found on the left of the Periodic Table, the non-metals on the right and the metalloids in between.
yes
metals are on the left nonmetals are on the right and the metalloids are in the middle. Here is a saying to help you remember metals on the left, nonmetals on the right the metalloids keep them from getting in a fight

metalloids
The three classes of periodic elements are:Metals,that usually tend to lose electrons to form positive ions.Semi-metals or MetalloidsNon-metals,that usually tend to accept electrons to become negative ions.
Metals and nonmetals are both in the periodic table. They both have atoms in them.
metals
yes
The 3 main categories are Metal, Nonmetals and Metalloids
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)"
because metalloids usually have properties that are similar to metals and nonmetals
Yes. There are only about 20 nonmetals and only 7 metalloids. The rest of the elements are metals.
