Which type of elements fall in beyween those of metals and nonmetals?

The elements that fall between metals and nonmetals are known as metalloids. These elements, such as silicon and germanium, exhibit properties of both metals and nonmetals. They typically have a metallic luster and are good semiconductors, making them valuable in electronic applications. Metalloids are found along the zigzag line on the Periodic Table, which separates metals from nonmetals.
