Some properties of metals are: they are good heat conductors, they have a high melting point, they react with oxygen to make oxides, all metals, but Mercury, are solid at room temperatures, they are positive when they form ions, they have a high density.Metals are usually shiny, malleable, and hard. They also are good conductors of electricity.
Semi-metals (or metalloids) are good semiconductors. They have characteristics of both metals and nonmetals. They also have ranging reactivity levels.
No, arsenic is a metalloid, which means it has characteristics of both metals and non-metals.
no, but there are metalloids, which have properties of both metals and non metals
They are metals that are reactive. They form cations easily and form ionic bonds.
A metalloid is an element that has some characteristics of both metals and nonmetals. Metalloids are found in a diagonal line between metals and nonmetals on the periodic table, such as silicon and arsenic.
what are the characteristics of metals? metals? non-metals?
Non-metals.
metalaoids have both the characteristics of metals and non metals. ex:-boron,germanyum.
An element that has characteristics of both metals and nonmetals is a metalloid.
They are malleable.
They are highly- reactive metals
