They are easier to shape than nonmetals, but not as easy as metals. All are solid at room temperature. Elements to the right of the semiconductors are Nonmetals. They are poor conductors of heat and electricity and not easily formed into shapes. Most are gases at room temperature, except for C , P , S , Se and I , which are solids and Br , which is a liquid.
H is also a nonmetal.
Elements to the left of the semiconductors on the table are considered metals. They are solid substances that are a good conductors of heat and electricity. They can be formed into many shapes.
