Lithium and possibly sodium
elements that is soft and easy to cut cleanly with a knife likely to be metal or a nonmetal
Lithium can be cut with a knife because the elements built in it are very sof tand timid.
The elements at the far left of the periodic table are called the "alkali metals," which are soft enough to be cut with a knife and reactive enough you'll never find them in nature as pure elements, only as salts.
Sodium is the softer among the two. It is soft enough to be cut by a knife. However, Gold is the one which is more malleable and ductile.
o Pure potassium is a lightweight silvery metal that is soft enough to cut with a knife.
Most of the Alkali metals are soft enough to be cut with a knife, certainly Sodium, Potassium and Rubidium are.
The softness of sodium metal is one of its physicalproperties.
