Well some of the properties of metal would proabably have to be and this is just a me guess that they would be good conductors of heat because you know that is what metals do and they would conduct something people call electricity or something like that. They are pretty much solid at room temperature expert for that one that is not which if i may say so myself that would be a little awkward to have a melted metal in your room. And sometimes but only sometimes metals can reflect of light!

Metals are very good conductors of heat and electricity. All but one are solid at room temp. Metals can also reflect light. This is called luster. Mercury is the only metal that is not a solid at room temp.

Obviously, and according to everyone else's blog, metals are swell heat conductors and peachy electricity conductors. That's why you shouldn;t stand on your roof holding a metal baseball bat when there is a lightning storm. You wll get electricuted.They are also very strong in their solid form, which is why they are used a lot in construction and stuff.

Well, metals are solids. They conduct heat and energy. They are usually solid at room temperature and reflect light off of them.

Metals are usually solid at room temperature. The only exception is mercury. This is why mercury is used in thermomometers. Metals are good conductors of heat and electricty. They also reflect light.
