A soft metal is easy to dent, work, or cut without shattering; malleable.

Some soft metals are gold, silver, aluminum, and lead.

What is the appearance of sodium?

Oh, sodium is a very soft grayish metal, it absorbs moisture from air and also reacts with carbon dioxide present in air. So sodium is kept stored submerged in a non-reactive liquid, like a petroleum distillate. As the metal is cut by metal knife, or a glass rod or anything, that cut will determine the surface texture.


Is francium hard or soft?

Francium would be expected to be soft, based on its being the highest atomic mass alkali metal. (It probably has never been made in large enough quantity for a hardness test!)
