Metalloids typically react with water to form acidic solutions. They can also react to form oxides or hydroxides, depending on the specific metalloid. For example, boron reacts with water to form boric acid, while silicon forms silicic acid.
Metalloids have properties that are intermediate between metals and non-metals. They typically exhibit characteristics of both groups, such as semi-conductivity, variability in electrical conductivity, and the ability to form covalent bonds. Some common metalloids include silicon, germanium, and arsenic.
Certain elements react with acids. Almost every metal react with acids except some, including copper, silver and gold. Metalloids are also weakly react with acids.
The semiconductors are found primarily in the transition metals groups and are referred to as metalloids.
Elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals are classified as metalloids. Metalloids have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals, such as being able to conduct electricity but not as effectively as metals. Examples of metalloids include silicon and arsenic.
Yes, metalloids can react with oxygen to form oxides. The reactivity of metalloids with oxygen depends on the specific metalloid and the conditions under which the reaction takes place. Silicon, for example, forms silicon dioxide when it reacts with oxygen.
Metalloids as a group have varying reactions with acids depending on the specific metalloid and acid involved. For example, silicon does not react with dilute acids, while boron can react with strong acids to form different compounds. Overall, metalloids can show acidic or amphoteric behavior, meaning they may react differently depending on the specific conditions.
Metalloids typically react with water to form acidic solutions. They can also react to form oxides or hydroxides, depending on the specific metalloid. For example, boron reacts with water to form boric acid, while silicon forms silicic acid.
They are both metalloids. They react with both acids and bases.
Uranium is a reactive metal and can react with all nonmetals and metalloids (excepting noble gases); also many alloys of uranium are known.
Metalloids have properties that are intermediate between metals and non-metals. They typically exhibit characteristics of both groups, such as semi-conductivity, variability in electrical conductivity, and the ability to form covalent bonds. Some common metalloids include silicon, germanium, and arsenic.
Aluminum and zinc are metals that react with both acids and bases. In acids, they undergo a displacement reaction to form a salt and hydrogen gas. In bases, they react to form a salt and hydrogen gas as well.
Certain elements react with acids. Almost every metal react with acids except some, including copper, silver and gold. Metalloids are also weakly react with acids.

where metalloids fit into the properties
Those elements are called metalloids. They have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals.
Metalloids when used is electronics are called semiconductors.
