1-Metals are shiny solids at room temperature.

2-High melting point and high density

3-Large atomic radius

4-Low electronegativity

5-Malleable

6-Ductile

7-Good conductors of heat and electricity

The properties of metals vary. Most metals are a gray color, but some like bismuth, copper,and gold are different. Some metals even show more than one color(pleochroism). The melting points of metals vary. Density also varies. The metal with the lowest electrical conductivity is Bismuth, and silver has the highest. The conductivity of most metals will lower when alloyed. All metals expand when heated and contract when cooled. Metals are usually strong and resistant to stress, but each one is different. Metals are graded by Hardness, (the resistance to surface deformation) Tensile strength (resistance to breaking) Elasticity (ability to take their original shape after deforming) Malleability (ability to be shaped) Fatigue resistance (resistance to repeated stress) Ductility (ability to be deformed without breaking). Metals mostly have positive valences, which means they donate electrons to the atoms they are bonded to. Metals tend to form basic oxides.

How are semi metals related to metals and non metals?

They have properties of metals and non-metals, and also have properties that are around '1/2' of both. An example is silicon, which has a high melting point and is solid (metallic properties). However it is very brittle and it forms an acidic oxide (non-metal). It is a semi-conductor.
