Metals are solids with the highest metallic elements. They are good conductors of heat and electricity.

Nonmetals don't have metallic elements. They are poor conductors of heat and electricity.

The metalloids are in-between metal and nonmetal. They are nonmetals but can act like a metal. Metals are good conductors. Nonmetals are poor conductors. Metalloids are semi-conductors.
