No, metalloids typically do not have a full valence shell of electrons. They have properties that are in between metals and nonmetals, which means they can exhibit characteristics of both types of elements.
halogen NOTE added by Dr.J.): A halogen doesn't have a few valence electrons. They have 7 valence electrons.
Metalloids typically exhibit a combination of covalent and metallic bonding, with covalent bonding dominating in nonmetallic metalloids and metallic bonding dominating in more metallic metalloids. Metals, on the other hand, mainly exhibit metallic bonding due to the delocalization of electrons across a lattice of positively charged ions, leading to the characteristic properties of metals such as conductivity and malleability.
Metalloids when used is electronics are called semiconductors.
Zinc has 2 valence electrons.
