The statement that describes a chemical property of most metals is:
B Very few metals are combustible.
Here's a brief explanation of the options:
- A Metals generally have high melting and boiling points, which is a physical property rather than a chemical property.
- B Combustibility is a chemical property, and indeed, most metals do not easily combust.
- C Lustrous appearance is also a physical property, referring to the sheen or shine of metals.
- D While most metals are solid at room temperature, this is another physical property.
Thus, option B accurately describes a chemical property of most metals.
