Metals are lustrous, malleable, ductile, good conductors of heat and electricity. Other properties include: State: Metals are solids at room temperature with the exception of mercury, which is liquid at room temperature (Gallium is liquid on hot days)
Luster: Metals have the quality of reflecting light from their surface and can be polished e.g., gold, silver and copper
Malleability: Metals have the ability to withstand hammering and can be made into thin sheets known as foils. For example, a sugar cube sized chunk of gold can be pounded into a thin sheet that will cover a football field
Ductility: Metals can be drawn into wires. For example, 100 g of silver can be drawn into a thin wire about 200 meters
