Metalloids, also known as semimetals, are elements that have properties of both metals and non-metals. They may have a shiny appearance like metals, but they are brittle like non-metals and act as semiconductors rather than conductors, which is similar to non-metals. Silicon, boron, and arsenic are some common examples of metalloids.
