Metals
- have lustre: they appear shiny
- can conduct heat and electricity
- have a very high melting point
- are malleable(this means they can be hammered without bending)
- have a high density
- can be ductile
- mostly opaque
- make sounds when hit
- corrode easily
Non- metals
- look dull
- don't conduct heat and electricity well
- aren't ductile
- can be at any state at room temperature(solid, liquid, gas)
- mostly transparent
Hope it helps :)
