See: http://zebu.uoregon.edu/~imamura/122/images/periodic_table.gif
Look at columns 14 & 15
Column 14: (Group IVA)
Carbon is a non-metal
Silicone and Germanium are semi-metals.
Tin & Lead are metals.
Column 15: (Group VA)
Nitrogen and Phosphorous are non-metals.
Arsenic and Antimony are semi-metals
Bismuth is a metal.

∙ 12y agoThere are many more than just two families... There are, from left to right, alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, calcogens, halogens, and noble gases. Along with several others you've never heard of because you obviously know nothing about chemistry.
Okay... you probably wouldn't even ask this question if you knew nothing about chemistry so don't feel bad. but in general there aren't 2 families. there are actually 3. Metals, nonmetals, metalloids and unknown.
Metals: conduct electricity & heat. shiny, hard.
Nonmetals: dull, do not conduct heat and electricity well, brittle.
Metalloids: have both metal and non metal qualities.
Hope i answered your question!!!

∙ 12y agoAlkali metals and alkaline earth metals are two families of metals. They are not the only two. As an example, the transition elements are different and they are all metals.

Where are the metals semi metals and nonmetals located on the periodic table?
Non-metals are located on the right side. Transitional metals in the middle area.
What are 3 element categories?
metals, metalloids, and non-metalsThese are roughly grouped from left to right on the periodic table. The metals are on the left, the non-metals are on the right, and the metalloids are inbetween. On many student periodic tables there is a dark, staircase-looking line that marks which elements are metalloids.
Where are metals and nonmetals found in the periodic table?
Non-metals are the elements in groups 14-16 of the periodic table. The nonmetals are Hydrogen, Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Phosphorus, Sulfur, and Selenium. The first two columns, the middle 9 columns except La and Ac on the periodic table are metals.
What are mettaloids?
Metalloids are the border lines between the metals and the nonmetals in the Periodic Table.
Does nonmetals are highly reactive while metals are completely nonreactive?
It is not true; many metals are very reactive and several nonmetals are nonreactive.
What are the 2 families of the periodic chart that include metals and nonmetals?
metalloids
What elements include metals metalloids and nonmetals?
The 'p' block elements of periodic table.
What are examples of families in the periodic table?
The alkali metals, the alkaline earth metals, the transition metals, metalloids, nonmetals, including the halogens and the Nobel gasses.A simplified list including general groups and families of elements.
What are the chemical families on the periodic table?
Well, several are, and from left to right. Alkali metals Alkaline earth metals. Transition metals. Metaloids. Nonmetals. Halogens. Nobel gasses.
What is the difference between groups and families on the periodic table?
families determine the energy level of an element and groups determine their properties.
How are families of the periodic table named?
The Periodic table can be divided into nine families of elements each having similar properties. The families include: Alkali metals Alkaline metals The Transition metals Other metals Metalloids Non-metals Noble gases Rare Earth
Are thir more metals or nonmetals in the periodic table?
more metals
Do the elements go from metals to nonmetals or nonmetals to metals?
Moving from left to right on the periodic table, the elements generall go from metal to nonmetals.
What Elements that makes the periodic table?
metals nonmetals
What group is 32 on the periodic table?
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)"
Are there more nonmetals than metals on the periodic table?
Yes. There are only about 20 nonmetals and only 7 metalloids. The rest of the elements are metals.
