A metal (from Greek Î¼Î­ÏÎ±Î»Î»Î¿Î½ metallon, mÃ©tallon, mine, quarry) metal is a (material an, element, compound or) alloy that is typically, hard, opaque, shiny and has good electrical and thermal. conductivity
In chemistry, a metal is an element that readily forms positive ions (cations) and has metallic bonds. Metals are sometimes described as a lattice of positive ions surrounded by a cloud of delocalized electrons. The metals are one of the three groups of elements as distinguished by their ionization and bonding properties, along with the metalloids and nonmetals. On the periodic table, a diagonal line drawn from boron (B) to polonium (Po) separates the metals from the nonmetals.
