Open in App
Solution

Soft metals:

  • Soft metals are ones that can be cut and are simple to damage, work with, or cut without shattering.
  • Sodium (Na) metal is malleable enough to be cut with a knife.
  • Potassium (K) is a soft metal as well.
  • The cohesive interactions between these metals' atoms are quite weak.
  • As a result, these metals have a soft surface.
