The general name of the elements whose properties are intermediate between those of metals and non-metals is known as metalloids.

Metalloid, in chemistry, is defined as an imprecise term used to describe a chemical element that forms a simple substance having properties intermediate between those of a typical metal and a typical non-metal. Most commonly used examples of metalloids are arsenic, boron, germanium, silicon, antimony, tellurium and pollanium.

We can identify metalloids in the modern periodic table by locating a zig-zag line which separates metals from non-metals. The borderline elements which are metalloids are - boron (B), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), tellurium (Te) and polonium (Po) - This elements exhibit properties similar to both metals and nonmetals and are called metalloids.

Select the reason why two molecules of benzaldehyde cannot react via the aldol condensation.
Lesechka [4]
Benzaldehyde or C6H5CHO would not undergo the aldol condensation because it does not contain an alpha-hydrogen in its structure. Aldol condensation is a type of reaction that happens between an enolate and an aldehyde or ketone leading to a alkene that has a planar structure. The lack of an alpha-hydrogen would not allow for it to undergo such process since it cannot enolize. Benzaldehyde undergoes a nucleophilic reaction known as Claisen-Schmidt condensation. It has somehow same mechanism of the aldol reaction however, the nucleophilic attack on the carbonyl happens even without the alpha-hydrogen but with an enolate that is from a ketone.
