Metalloids

The boron family, consisting of elements such as boron (B), aluminum (Al), gallium (Ga), indium (In), and thallium (Tl), exhibits a general trend in their melting and boiling points. Boron has a high melting point of about 2075°C and a boiling point of around 4000°C, while aluminum has lower melting and boiling points at approximately 660°C and 2519°C, respectively. Gallium has a melting point of about 29.76°C, which allows it to melt in hand, and its boiling point is around 2204°C. Indium and thallium have melting points of 156.6°C and 304°C, respectively, with boiling points of 2072°C and 1470°C.

Only Certain Company Buy these type of items and in India there are only 8 company which are True and Have done dealing BEFORE also... i know some more info about that so if i can help you : ekansh44@gmail.com

The examples of Metalloids are; Boron, Silicon, Germanium, Arsenic, Antimony, Tellurium and Polonium.

That neutral silicon atom has four electrons in its valence shell.

yes. they do

Metalloids are chemical elements; they have not a chemical equation. They have chemical symbols as B, As, Ge, Te, Si, Sb.

Together with the metals and nonmetals, the metalloids (in Greek metallon = metal and eidos = sort - also called semimetals) form one of the three categories of chemical elements as classified by ionization and bonding properties. They have properties intermediate between those of metals and nonmetals. There is no unique way of distinguishing a metalloid from a true metal but the most common is that metalloids are usually semiconductors rather than conductors.

The known metalloids (and their atomic symbols) are:

Boron (B)
Silicon (Si)
Germanium (Ge)
Arsenic (As)
Antimony (Sb)
Tellurium (Te)
Polonium (Po)
Astatine (At)
In the periodic table, metalloids occur along the diagonal line from boron to polonium. Elements to the upper right of this line are nonmetals; elements to the lower left are metals.

Semi-metallic behaviour is not confined to the elements, but is also found in alloys and compounds. Mercury (II) telluride is one example.

One definition of semi-metallic behavior would be if the conduction band and valence band overlap. This is also true of metals, so semi-metals must additionally have a relatively low carrier density.

Boron is the only mettaloid in Group 13

The entire 1N40xx series of power diodes are all silicon.

The OA79 small signal diode is germanium.

non metal

the atomic radius of antimony is 159

generally as solids

There is a stair in the periodic table running along groups 13 to 17. The elements on the stairs are metalloids whereas the elements to its right are non-metals. Metals lie on the left side of the stairs.

It's a transition metal.

In the Periodic Table, a group is a column of elements and a period is a row. The element in the 14th column and fourth row is germanium.
