An element that has a low first ionization energy and good conductivity of heat and electricity. What is this element classified as?

Because they can lose electrons to produce positive ions with some ease, metals are elements with low electronegativity.

In the pure state, however, they are joined by metallic bonds, which are defined by the low energy barrier that permits valence electrons to move from one atom to the next. This property makes electrical conductivity possible because the electrons can move across the metallic network over long distances with minimal energy expenditure.

As a result of the valence electrons' easy movement from one atom to another, which facilitates both electrical conduction and the easy transfer of heat energy from one point to another, metals are also good heat conductors. The Wiedemann-Franz law links thermal conductivity to electrical conductivity, ensuring that the two quantities are proportionate to one another.
