84metals+ 7 metalloids.
All the metals in the periodic table…
metals are elements that are almost always solid(except for mercury, a liquid) and are shiny and conduct electricity. they also lose electrons easily and are ductile(easy to draw into wire ) and malleable(can be hammered or hit or cut into other shapes) they are also very good heat conductors.
metalloids
Metalloids have some metallic properties but also exhibit non metal properties, they only partially conduct electricity and are principal in semiconductor construction, for computers and electronics
