Transition metalloids
Why are so many of the transition metals randomly marked as metalloids? Double sharp (talk) 04:35, 18 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Because of their high electronegativities. Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty 13:42, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Gold certainly is the best metalloid candidate among the TMs! (It actually can become a pseudohalogen...) But isn't the bottom row just predictions?
 * BTW, if you're interested, note that Na, K, Ti–Ni, Rb, Nb–Rh, Sn, Ta–Ir, Au, Pb–Po (I consider polonium a metal) can also go to negative oxidation states, despite being metals. Double sharp (talk) 14:18, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
