Other Metals

Other metals

other metals group is consisted of 7 elements which  are located in groups 13, 14, and 15. While these elements are  malleable and ductile. These elements, unlike the transition elements, do not exhibit variable oxidation states, and their valence electrons are only present in their outer shell, so they are not the same as the transition elements. All of these elements are solid, have a relatively high density, and are opaque.

The most common or abundant element that we usually see on earth and is located in the earths crust is aluminium, aluminium is used in many different things also for example its an excellent conductor of heat and electricity, malleable and also resists rust. Gallium on the other hand is also one of the common elements but its hard to get to, because if you even try to to hold a gallium in your hand it will melt straight away.
