Low ionization energies.

Explanation: Metals have loosely held, delocalized valence electrons that are easily lost (low ionization energy), which gives them electrical conductivity and metallic bonding. The other choices are false: metals do not have localized or tightly held valence electrons, nor high electronegativity.
