What color are the metals in the above periodic table? Which side of the periodic table are metals found? (left or right) What are the properties of metals? short and simple answer

Answer 1

Metals in the periodic table are typically silver, gray, or gold in color, although some can appear in other colors due to oxidation or other chemical processes. Metals are primarily found on the left side of the periodic table.

Properties of metals include:

• Good conductors of heat and electricity
• Malleable (can be hammered into thin sheets)
• Ductile (can be drawn into wires)
• Shiny (metalic luster)
• Generally solid at room temperature (except mercury)
• Higher density and melting points compared to nonmetals.
