Full Text. A metal can refer to an element, compound, or alloy that is a good conductor of both electricity and heat. Example metals include gold, sodium, copper, iron, and many other elements. Metals are usually malleable, ductile, and shiny. Metals typically consist of close-packed atoms, meaning that the atoms are arranged like closely packed spheres. In a metal, atoms readily lose electrons to form positive ions (cations).
