Radon is a colorless gas.
Most metals are ductile, malleable, good conductors of electricity and heat, and have a shiny luster.
Mercury is non-ductile and non-malleable, as it is a liquid.Lead is malleable but not ductile.
poor conductor of heat
The properties you mentioned are characteristic of metals. Metals have luster because their delocalized electrons absorb and re-emit light. They conduct heat and electricity due to the mobility of their free electrons. Metals are malleable and ductile because of their ability to undergo plastic deformation without breaking.
