Metals are the good conductor of heat and electricity, they are malleable and ductile. Most of the metals are found in combined state.Metals are strong and are useful for making tools, buildings, bridges and other structures where strength is important. The most abundant metal on the earth is iron.The tallest free-standing structures in the world are made of metals, primarily the alloy steel. They include the Dubai skyscraper Burj Kalifa, the Tokyo television tower Skytree, and the Shanghai Tower skyscraper. Some of the examples of metals are copper, gold, iron, aluminium, etc.
