The elements on the periodic table are divided in three categories which are metals, non-metals and metalloids. Metals and nonmetals are two categories that are used to classiâ¦fy  the elements in the periodic table. The third is inert gases. 7 people found this useful.
The elements of the periodic table can be broken into three different groups: metals, metalloids (or semi-metals) and nonmetals. This periodic table shows the three different groups of elements.The metalloid group separates the metals from the nonmetals. Elements to the left are metals and nonmetals are to the right.The exception is the element hydrogen. Hydrogen has properties of a nonmetal at normal temperatures and pressures.he metalloid group separates the metals from the nonmetals. Elements to the left are metals and nonmetals are to the right.
