    Good conductor

    Explanation:

    Metals form metallic bonds. They are also sometimes called 'a sea of electrons'. Basically, metal cations are surrounded by a sea of closely packed valence electrons. This close packing lets the particles of a metal interact much more efficiently and transfer heat or electric current efficiently. The valence electrons and metals ions are also moving to some extent, so besides being packed efficiently, they can also interact and collide to transfer electricity and heat.

    This makes metals good heat and electric conductors.
