A metalloid is a type of chemical element which has a preponderance of properties in between, or that are a mixture of, those of metals and nonmetals. There is no standard definition of a metalloid and no complete agreement on which elements are 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
➯Examples : boron, silicon, germanium etc.
