your question about metals and nonmetal is in the attachment and the metalloid details are here:
METALLOIDS : Elements which show some properties of metals and some other properties of nonmetals are called metalloids.Metalloids look like metals but they are brittle like non metals. Metalloids are typically semiconductors which means that they both insulate and conduct electricity . The semiconductor property makes metalloid very useful as a computer chip material . They are also called as semi metals.
Some important examples of metalloids are as follows : Boron(B), Silicon(Si) and Germanium(Ge).

Metals are opaque, lustrous elements that are good conductors of heat and electricity. Most metals are malleable and ductile and are, in general, denser than the other elemental substances.

Non-metals are those which lack all the metallic attributes. They are good insulators of heat and electricity. They are mostly gases and sometimes liquid. Some they are even solid at room temperature like, Carbon, sulfur and phosphorus.
Metalloids are a unique group of elements that share properties of both metals and nonmetals.e.gboron, silicon, germanium, arsenic etc
