The two most important alkali metals would be sodium and potassium.
Most transition metals are characterized by their shiny, metallic luster rather than dullness. They typically have high melting and boiling points, and many are good conductors of heat and electricity. These metals also exhibit variable oxidation states and are known for forming colorful compounds, which is a result of their d-orbitals. Hence, describing them as dull would not accurately reflect their properties or appearance.
Most metalloids have intermediate conductivity properties, meaning they are not as good conductors of heat and electricity as metals, but better than nonmetals. This is due to their partial metal and nonmetal characteristics, which allow for some electron mobility within their structure.
Most metals do not react with water, especially at room temperature. It is easier to state which metals DO react with water. Those would be Li, K, Sr, Ca and Na. Those reacting with hot water (steam) would be Mg, Al, Zn and Cu. Most other metals do NOT react with water.
The most of the chemical elements are metals. Most are transition metals (located in the middle of the Periodic Table).

the alkali metals are the most reactive... either cesium or francium would be the most reactive out of this group.
The form of energy that is not conducted by most metals is sound because if you want to test that you would have to clank it together and it would not make a sound.
Describe the property.
Metals in the first group are Alkali Metals. Their group number is one. They are reactive. They don't occur freely in nature. They are soft, malleable, ductile, good conductors of heat and electricity. Cesium and Francium are the most reactive metals in this group. Also, these metals explode when exposed to water.
Most metalloids have intermediate conductivity properties, meaning they are not as good conductors of heat and electricity as metals, but better than nonmetals. This is due to their partial metal and nonmetal characteristics, which allow for some electron mobility within their structure.
That would be the noble gases

The most reactive non metals are Halogens which may combine most of the metals as well as non metals.
