Semi-metals or metalloids, such as silicon and germanium, have properties of both metals and nonmetals. They can conduct electricity like metals but also have nonmetallic properties like brittleness and poor conductivity in some forms.
Metalloids. Boron - B, Silicon - Si, Germanium - Ge, Arsenic -As,Antimony - Sb, Tellurium - Te, and Astatine - At.
No. Noble gasses are elements that rarely, if ever form chemical bonds. The elements with both metallic and nonmetallic properties are the metalloids.
Barium is a rare metal that is non magnetic
Barite is a non-metallic mineral. It is a sulfate mineral that is composed of barium sulfate.
No, stainless steel is not a nonmetallic element. It is a metallic alloy composed mainly of iron, with a minimum of 10.5% chromium to give it its corrosion-resistant properties.
Gold is a metallic element. It exhibits typical metallic properties such as luster, malleability, and conductivity of electricity.
