multiple - choice question
metals have which properties? (select all that apply)
solid at room temp (except for mercury)
brittle solids
neither malleable or ductile
ductile (can be drawn into a wire)
poor conductors of heat and electricity
malleable (can pound into a sheet)
good conductors of heat and electricity

Explanation:

Metals are typically solid at room temperature (with the exception of mercury). They are malleable (can be pounded into a sheet) and ductile (can be drawn into a wire). They are also good conductors of heat and electricity. Brittle solids, being neither malleable nor ductile, and poor conductors of heat and electricity are properties of non - metals.

Answer:

Solid at room temp (except for Mercury), Ductile (can be drawn into a wire), Malleable (can pound into a sheet), Good conductors of heat and electricity.
