Solution

The correct options are
C Silicon
D Germanium
In the modern periodic table, a zig-zag line separates metals from non-metals. The borderline elements - boron (B), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), tellurium (Te) and polonium (Po) - exhibit properties similar to both metals and nonmetals and are called metalloids.
