Not all metals feel cold to the touch; the perception of temperature depends on their thermal conductivity and the surrounding environment. Metals like copper and aluminum conduct heat away from the skin quickly, making them feel cold when touched. However, if a metal is heated or is in a warm environment, it may feel warm or even hot. Thus, the temperature sensation varies based on the specific metal and its conditions.

Why metals are cold to touch?

Metals feel cold to the touch because they are efficient conductors of heat. When you touch a metal object, it quickly draws heat away from your skin, making it feel cold. Metals have high thermal conductivity, allowing them to quickly equalize their temperature with the surroundings, which is why they often feel cold.


Which metals react slowly with cold water but vigorously with steam?

All metals, if they do react with water at all, react faster in steam than in water. However, the metals that react SLOWLY with cold water are the metals from Group-IIA(Magnesium, Calcium, etc).
