Answer:

Metals:

A metal can be defined chemically as an element that readily forms positive ions (cations) and has metallic bonds. They tend to lose electrons easily. While the traditional definition focuses on the bulk properties of metals, they are sometimes also described as a lattice of positive ions surrounded by a cloud of delocalized electrons.

Non Metals:

Non-metals are elements which form negative ions(anions) by accepting or gaining electrons. They generally have 4,5,6 or 7 electrons in their outermost shell so they tend to gain electrons during chemical reactions.

Metalliods:

Metalloid, in chemistry, is a term which describes a chemical element forming a simple substance having properties intermediate between those of a typical metal and a typical nonmetal. They are often called semi-metals.

Answer:

The metalloids are intermediate in their properties. ... The metals are to the left of the line (except for hydrogen, which is a nonmetal), the nonmetals are to the right of the line, and the elements immediately adjacent to the line are the metalloids.
