Answer:

Metals typically have the following properties

Step-by-step explanation:

PROPERTIES OF METALS

*Malleable

*Ductile

*Sonorous

*Lustrous

*And are good Conductors of electricity

NON METALS do not contain the above properties

and metalloids are those which have both properties of Metals and Non-Metals

so looking at these properties, we are able to distinguish between Metals, Non metals and Metalloids

Hope this was Helpful
