Metals (except Hg) are good conductors of heat and electricity, easily formable into sheets or wires, and have a shiny appearance. However, they can react chemically with other substances, so they are not chemically unreactive like stated in option IV. Additionally, not all metals are soluble in water, making option V incorrect. Therefore, the answer is C, as it includes the three properties that are true for all metals.
