The seven metals of antiquity are gold, silver, copper, iron, tin, lead, and mercury. These metals were known and used in ancient civilizations for various purposes such as tools, weapons, jewelry, and coinage.
Seven , outer shell electrons or valence electrons increase as you move from left to right on the periodic table not including the transition metals which vary, they start with 1 valence in the alkali earth metals , and finish with 8 valence electrons on the noble gasses (group 18)
The element that fits this description is chlorine (Cl). It is a diatomic gas at room temperature with a low melting and boiling point. It has seven valence electrons and readily reacts with metals to form ionic salts.
Groups 3-12 do not have individual names. Instead, all of these groups are called transition metals. The atoms of transition metals do not give away their electrons as easily as atoms of the Group 1 and Group 2 metals do. So, transition metals are less reactive than alkali metals and alkaline-earth metals are.
You can look at the periodic table of the elements and determine the number of valence electrons in that element. The Alkali metals have one The Alkaline earth metals have two The Transition metals have one to three, it depends The Boron family have three The Carbon family have four The Nitrogen family have five The Oxygen family have six The Halogen family have seven The Noble gases have eight

Process Metallurgy is one of the oldest applied sciences. Its history can be traced back to 6000 BC. Admittedly, its form at that time was rudimentary, but, to gain a perspective in Process Metallurgy, it is worthwhile to spend a little time studying the initiation of mankind's association with metals. Currently there are 86 known metals. Before the 19th century only 24 of these metals had been discovered and, of these 24 metals, 12 were discovered in the 18th century. Therefore, from the discovery of the first metals - gold and copper until the end of the 17th century, some 7700 years, only 12 metals were known. Four of these metals, arsenic, antimony , zinc and bismuth , were discovered in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, while platinum was discovered in the 16th century. The other seven metals, known as the Metals of Antiquity, were the metals upon which civilization was based. These seven metals were:(1) Gold (ca) 6000BC(2) Copper,(ca) 4200BC(3) Silver,(ca) 4000BC(4) Lead, (ca) 3500BC(5) Tin, (ca) 1750BC(6) Iron,smelted, (ca) 1500BC(7) Mercury, (ca) 750BCThese metals were known to the Mesopotamians, Egyptians, Greeks and the Romans. Of the seven metals, five can be found in their native states, e.g., gold, silver, copper, iron (from meteors) and mercury. However, the occurrence of these metals was not abundant and the first two metals to be used widely were gold and copper. And, of course, the history of metals is closely linked to that of coins and gemstones
