6. Metals are Usually Strong. They Have High Tensile Strength.
This means that metals can hold large weights without breaking. For example, iron metal (in the form of steel) is very strong having a high tensile strength. Due to this iron metal is used in the construction of bridges, buildings, railway lines, girders, machines, vehicles and chains, etc. Though most of the metals are strong but some of the metals are not strong. For example, sodium and potassium metals are not strong. They have low tensile strength.
