alloy
Yes they are!even though they are very soft, reactive and not as widely used as much as transition metals eg. in construction they still have other metallic properties, such as metallic bonding.Yes all alkali metals are metals.
No, being good energy conductors is a physical property of some metals, not a chemical property. Chemical properties describe how a substance interacts with other substances and undergoes chemical reactions, while physical properties describe the characteristics and behavior of a substance without changing its chemical composition.
Metaloids are elements that have characteristics of both metals and non-metals.
Iron has more important mechanical properties.
they can be melted, mixed with other metals(alloys)
Really none. That is why gold is so valuable. While other metals have similar properties to gold, none of them have the exact same. The closest metals to gold in terms of its properties are silver, platinum and palladium.
alloy
Because they may fuse, block or displace other metals! :)

By combining it with other metals to create an alloy.
the groups of alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, transition metals, and other metal are all metals and some of the metalloids have metallic properties and the alkali, alkaline are on the left, transition metals are in the middle, other metals are located directly next to the transition metals and the metalloids are next to the other metals, and then you have halogens and Nobel gases, Lanthanides and Actinides which are all gases and rare earth.
Chemical Properties.

People study metals for many reasons. Metals can be used to build structures and other goods such as cars, furniture and pieces of technology. Metals are also studied for their many properties such as ability to conduct electricity and also for their strength and radioactive properties.
Iron has more important mechanical properties.
