Answer:

I am guessing it is B. Non-metal, metals, metalloids

B. Metals, Non-Metals, Metalloids



Metals: located in the South and West of Periodic Table. Tend to give up electrons (form cations) and form simple ionic compounds with non-metal anions. Most of the 118 known elements are metals.


2. Non-Metals : located in the North and East of the Periodic Table. Tend to attract electrons (form anions) and combine with metal cations to make ionics, or share them with other non-metals and form covalent compounds . There are nineteen nonmetals, if we consider the ‘latest” two, which are not well characterized and have fleeting lifetimes.


3. Metalloids: straddle a staircase-like region between metals and non-metals. Their properties are intermediate between metals and non metals (in varying proportions). There are only seven metalloids.


So the answer is B ❤️
