Answer:

Metals are malleable, and ductile, have a shiny luster, form metallic bonds, and are superb conductors (to name some properties).

Ex. Copper

Malleable is the ability to be pounded into thin sheets.

Ductile is the ability to be drawn into a thin wire.

Metallic is metal-to-metal bonding.

Nonmetals, however, are not malleable, or ductile, are not good conductors and form covalent and ionic bonds.

Ex. Carbon

Covalent is nonmetal-to-nonmetal bonding.

Ionic is metal-to-nonmetal bonding.

Metalloids

Semiconductors, and are basically metal and nonmetal properties combined. I.E. Has a metallic luster but is brittle (not malleable).

Ex. Sillicon
