nonmetal
t that is a malleable, shiny solid, but doesn't conduct heat or electricity
only metal elements conduct electricity, and they do it very well
malleable
Bromine only conducts electricity when bonded with another metal/element.
Conductor of electricity are compounds that allow electricity to pass through. They are metallic and sometimes ductile and malleable. Very common is iron. The most metallic element is francium.
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.

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.
iron
At standard temperature and pressure (STP), the element that is malleable and a good conductor of electricity is copper.
Carbon is not malleable but in some forms can conduct electricity. Gold is malleable and conductive.
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.
Metals can conduct electricity, are malleable (can be hammered into thin sheets), and have a shiny appearance (luster).

The element you are referring to is likely gold. Gold is a shiny and malleable metal, but it is a poor conductor of electricity compared to other metals like copper or silver.
