Question

What are the combining powers of the following metalloids :-

Antimony
Arsenic
Silicon
Boron
Beryllium ​

Answer 1

Answer:

The metalloids are boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, and tellurium. These elements look metallic; however, they do not conduct electricity as well as metals so they are semiconductors.Physical properties are usually those that can be observed using our senses such as color, luster, freezing point, boiling point, melting point, density, hardness and odor. Metalloids have mixed properties which are difficult to characterize.
