A vertical column of elements in the periodic table

• group
• period
• periodicity
• series

Good conductors, lustrous, and malleable

• metals
• nonmetals
• metalloids
• semimetals

Poor conductors, brittle when solid, many are gaseous at room temperature

• nonmetals
• metals
• metalloids
• semimetals

A sample of this might have a metallic luster, be brittle, and be a semiconductor

• metalloid
• metal
• nonmetal
• noble gas
