Temperature affects metals in several ways:
- they expand with increasing temperature
- their electrical resistance changes - we expect their resistance to increase with increasing temperature
- their mechanical properties (such as ductility, hardness. tensile strength, yeild stress, etc) change - for example usually becoming softer and more ductile with increasing temperature
- some metals will undergo solid state phase changes with changes in temperature - especially alloys

What factors affect the resistance of material to the flow of energy?
The resistivity of metals increases with temperature. Going the other way, some metals become superconductors if the temperature is lowered to a sufficiently low temperature.
What is the state of matter that most metals are in?
That obviously depends on the temperature. At room temperature, most metals are solid.
What is effect of temperature on conductor?
It depends on the material. In metals, the resistance increases with temperature.
What pictures can answer the question How does temperature affect the bounce of a ball?
temperature does affect the bounce of a ball!
How does salt affect the rusting away of metals?

How does the composition of the magma affect the temperature which it solidifies?
Magma consists of molten rocks and metals. The composition can vary based on presence of water, metals with different melting points, and such.
What is hot working of metals?
Hot working of metals is defined as a process of forming metals by deformation at temperature above the recrystallization temperature.
What metals are strong in room temperature?
Metals like steel are strong in room temperature. If you want anymore, search for metals as strong as steel :)
What is the state of matter that most metals are in?
That obviously depends on the temperature. At room temperature, most metals are solid.
At room temperature none of the metals are?
None of the metals are gasses at room temperature.
What room temperature are most metals are in in?
Most metals are solids at room temperature. They're not liquids, and they're certainly not gases. Mercury is the only metal that is a liquid in this temperature range. There are 5 metals that are liquid at or close to room temperature. Cesium, Francium, Gallium, Rubidium, and Mercury.Almost all metals are solid at Room temperature and Pressure, except for Mercury, which is a liquid.
Properties of metals include?
What are the 3 properties of metals?
What happens when gases mix with metals?
At a given temperature gases can react with metals.
Are non metals?
non metals are gases and are poor conductors at room temperature
What metals are solid?
At room temperature, all metals except Mercury are solid.
What is a characteristic of nonmetal a?
One characteristic of non-metals is that they are generally gaseous at room temperature. Non-metals will also typically bond with metals easily.
