When something is easily mold-able, you would say it is this.

What is malleable?

200

Alkali Metals and most coins share this color.

What is silver?

300

Alkali metals are great for this time of year as they are very good at conducting this.

What is heat?

400

Alkali metals begin to "boil" or "dissolve" at low temperatures meaning they have this.

What are low melting points?

500

Alkali metals destroy or damage some materials slowly by chemical action, meaning they are this.

What is corrosive?
