Metals are the group of elements that are malleable, conduct electricity, and are lustrous. Metals are typically found on the left side of the Periodic Table.
Insulators. Their valence electrons are tightly bound because the valence shell is close to full or full. Since each shell can only only hold a certain amount of electrons, the number of electrons depends on which shell is the outer or valence shell.
Carbon is not malleable but in some forms can conduct electricity. Gold is malleable and conductive.
Metals can conduct electricity, are malleable (can be hammered into thin sheets), and have a shiny appearance (luster).

Tin and lead are the two elements in Group 14 that are more malleable and better conductors of electricity compared to carbon and silicon. Tin and lead exhibit metallic properties due to their crystal structures, allowing them to easily deform under pressure and conduct electricity efficiently.
Most metal elements are not brittle and do conduct electricity. However, there are exceptions, such as bismuth and mercury, which are brittle or poor conductors of electricity. Overall, metals are known for their malleability and good conductivity of electricity.

Shiny, malleable, ductile, and able to conduct electricity are qualities characteristic of metals. Metals have a lustrous appearance (shiny), can be easily shaped or bent (malleable), stretched into wires (ductile), and possess free-moving electrons that allow them to conduct electricity efficiently. These properties make metals useful in a wide range of applications, including construction, electrical wiring, and manufacturing.
Platinum is a transition metal. Transition elements are both ductile and malleable, and conduct electricity and heat.
Insulators. Their valence electrons are tightly bound because the valence shell is close to full or full. Since each shell can only only hold a certain amount of electrons, the number of electrons depends on which shell is the outer or valence shell.
t that is a malleable, shiny solid, but doesn't conduct heat or electricity
nonmetal
Carbon is not malleable but in some forms can conduct electricity. Gold is malleable and conductive.
The alkali metals, transition metals and metals in group 13, 14, and 15 on the periodic table all are malleable and good conductors of electricityEach of these groups has different characteristics, but all are able to conduct electricity and be formed or shaped easily.
None are more metallic. Metallic is a way of describing a metal in general.
