The majority of elements on the periodic table are
metals
nonmetals
semimetals
compounds
Metals can be malleable, good conductors, and have a high melting point. This makes metals good materials for making
jewelry
cooking pans
armor
coins
Metals can be malleable, ductile, and have luster. This makes metals good materials for making
jewelry
cooking pans
