What are some of the most common examples of metals and non-metals?
What are some properties of metals that distinguish them from non-metals?
Metals are typically shiny, malleable, and ductile, meaning they can be hammered into thin sheets and drawn into wires. They also conduct heat and electricity well. Non-metals, on the other hand, are generally not shiny and are brittle in solid form. They also tend to be poor conductors of heat and electricity.
