Question

which metal characteristic makes it dangerous to touch metal to an outlet? metals are ductile. metals have high melting points. metals conduct heat. metals conduct electrical current.

Explanation:

Electricity flows through materials that conduct electrical current. Metals are good conductors of electricity. When metal touches an outlet, electricity can flow through the metal, which can cause electric shock. Ductility (ability to be drawn into wires) and high melting points are not related to the danger of touching metal to an outlet. While metals do conduct heat, the main danger with an outlet is electrical, not thermal.

Answer:

Metals conduct electrical current.
