If you are talking in terms of properties you should look for (Metal) materials that are:
<span>Lustrous
Hard.
High density (heavy for their size)
High strength (resist being stretched)
High melting and boiling points.
<span>Good conductors of heat and electricity.
Non metals are/have:
</span></span><span>High ionization
High electronegativities
Not malleable or ductile.
Little or no metallic luster.
Gain electrons easily.
<span>Dull, not metallic-shiny
</span></span>poor conductors of heat
and poor conductors of electricity
Hope this helps!
