Question 16 • FL-2003350-Chemistry 1 Honors

Which statement best describes the properties of metals?

Answer
A
They are shiny and bend without breaking.
B
They are dull and are good electrical insulators.
C
They conduct electricity well and are brittle.
D
They can be flattened and do not conduct heat well.

Explanation

Metals are typically shiny, a property called luster, and can often be bent or shaped without breaking. They also generally conduct heat and electricity well. So “They are shiny and bend without breaking” best describes metals; the other choices incorrectly describe metals as dull, brittle, or poor conductors.
