Answer:

Gold is a metal, more specifically a transition metal, whereas Oxygen is a nonmetal, more specifically a reactive nonmetal. Using this information, you can compare and contrast metals, nonmetals, and metalloids.

Metals are:

Shiny

High melting point

Mostly silver or gray in color

Mostly solids at room temperature – Mercury (Hg) is a liquid at room temperature

Malleable – able to be hammered into a thin sheet

Ductile – able to be drawn/pulled into a wire

Good conductors of heat and electricity

Nonmetals are:

Dull

Low melting point

Brittle – break easily

Not malleable

Not ductile

Poor conductors of heat and electricity

Metalloids are:

Found on the “zig-zag” line on the Periodic Table of Elements
