metalloids
nonmetals
oxygen, nitrogen, neon
ductile and malleable
sodium, magnesium, iron
semiconductor
silicon, germanium, arsenic
poor conductors

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze properties of metals

Metals have properties like being ductile and malleable. Also, elements like sodium, magnesium, iron are metals.

Step2: Analyze properties of metalloids

Metalloids are semiconductors. Elements such as silicon, germanium, arsenic are metalloids.

Step3: Analyze properties of non - metals

Non - metals are poor conductors. Given that oxygen, nitrogen, neon are already in the non - metals column.

Answer:

• Metals: Ductile and malleable, Sodium, Magnesium, Iron
• Metalloids: Semiconductor, Silicon, Germanium, Arsenic
• Nonmetals: Poor conductors, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Neon
