Metals have a number of properites. Metals are elements which have from one to three electrons in their valence shell. A metallic bond is formed by the sharing of electrons by the entire mass of atoms, in the form of an electron cloud. Metals are good electrical conductors, good heat conductors, generally strong and flexible. Some metals are highly flammable. They are shiny.

Metals are typically shiny, malleable, and ductile. They have high thermal and electrical conductivity, and are usually solid at room temperature (except for Mercury). Metals also tend to be dense and have a metallic luster.

Is boron a non-metal or a metal?
Neither it is a metalloid or semi-metal. It has both metallic and nonmetallic properties.
Are iron and sulfur metals?
Iron is a metal, but sulfur is a non-metal. Iron is a transition metal with metallic properties such as conductivity and malleability, while sulfur is a non-metal with properties like brittleness and poor conductivity.
What are one of the properties metal has?
One property of metals is that they are good conductors of electricity and heat due to the mobility of their electrons.
Is gold a semimetal?
No, gold is not a semimetal. It is a metal due to its properties such as high electrical conductivity, malleability, and ductility. Semimetals have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals.
Why is cobalt known as a metal?
Cobalt is known as a metal because it is a chemical element with metallic properties. It has luster, conductivity, and typically forms cations in solution. Cobalt is classified as a transition metal due to its position in the periodic table.
What is an element with no properties of metal?
Non-metal
What element has properties of non metals and metals?
Mercury? its a liquid metal It has metal properties and liquid properties right? someone let me know.
Do alloys help to eliminate undesired properties in a metal?
Alloys can help neutralize unwanted properties of a metal
What is an element with no properties of metal called?
Non-metal
Why is actinium a metal?
Actinium is a metal because has metallic bonds and the properties of a metal.
Is boron a non-metal or a metal?
Neither it is a metalloid or semi-metal. It has both metallic and nonmetallic properties.
Does argon have the properties of a metal and of a nonmetal?
No, it does not.
What are the physical properties of a metal?
stuff
