11. 11 Metals, Nonmetals, and Metalloids The heavy zigzag line separates metals and nonmetals. Metals are located to the left. Nonmetals are located to the right. Metalloids are located along the heavy zigzag line between the metals and nonmetals. Copyright © 2008 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings

12. 12 Metals Are shiny and ductile. Are good conductors of heat and electricity. Nonmetals Are dull, brittle, and poor conductors. Are good insulators. Metalloids Are better conductors than nonmetals, but not as good as metals. Are used as semiconductors and insulators. Properties of Metals, Nonmetals, and Metalloids
