Where in the periodic table are the nonmetals located and where are the metalloids?

Nonmetals are located on the right side of the periodic table, in groups 14-18. Metalloids are located along the staircase line that separates metals from nonmetals, meaning they have properties of both metals and nonmetals.


Where on the periodic table would you find metals and nonmetals?

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)"


How do you know where metals nonmetals and metalloids are on the periodic table?

Metals are located on the left side of the periodic table, nonmetals are on the right side, and metalloids are along the zig-zag line that separates metals and nonmetals. This classification is based on the physical and chemical properties of the elements.


Where on the periodic table are the nonmetals and metalloids located?
