Question

What causes the high luster of a metal?

a
excitation of electrons into empty orbitals
b mobility of electrons
C easily ionizable metal atoms
d their low melting points

Answer 1

When light is shone on to the surface of a metal, its electrons absorb small amounts of energy and become excited into one of its many empty orbitals. The electrons immediately fall back down to lower energy levels and emit light. This process is responsible for the high luster of metals.
