Silicon is used extensively in computer chips and other electronics because its electrical conductivity is in between that of a metal and a nonmetal. We find arsenic in pesticides, herbicides, and insecticides, but the use of arsenic for these applications is decreasing due to the toxicity of the metal.

How metalloids behave in chemical interactions with other elements depends mainly on the number of electrons in the outer energy level of their atoms. Because metalloids are similar in some ways to metals and in other ways to nonmetals, to understand metalloids you need to understand these other two classes of elements.
