Wikipedia definition
3. Metal​A metal (from Greek "μέταλλον" – métallon, "mine, quarry, metal") is an element, compound, or alloy that is a good conductor of both electricity and heat. Metals are usually malleable and shiny, that is they reflect most of incident light. In a metal, atoms readily lose electrons to form positive ions. Those ions are surrounded by de-localized electrons, which are responsible for the conductivity.
