Question
which element group conducts heat and electricity and can be stretched and shaped? nonmetals metalloids lanthanides metals
Metals are known for their ability to conduct heat and electricity well. They are also malleable (can be shaped) and ductile (can be stretched). Non - metals generally do not conduct heat and electricity as effectively and are not malleable or ductile. Metalloids have some properties of both metals and non - metals but not as pronounced in conductivity, malleability, and ductility as metals. Lanthanides are a specific group of metals but the general property of conducting heat/electricity and being stretchable and shapable is characteristic of metals in general.
