Metals and non-metals are two types of elements that show contrasting properties.
Metals:
1. Metals are usually solid at room temperature (except mercury).
2. They are good conductors of heat and electricity.
3. Metals are malleable (can be hammered into thin sheets) and ductile (can be drawn into wires).
4. They have a shiny appearance, or luster.
