What other means of qualitative analysis are used to identify metals(at least five)

The use of spectrum(Flame taste)

Chemical reaction

The use of indicators

Mass spectrometry

By bombarding with cathode rays(this method was used by Mosley to search for atomic number of each element)

Explanation:

1.   Insoluble Chlorides

2.  Acid-Insoluble Sulfides

3.  Base-Insoluble Sulfides (and Hydroxides)

4.  Insoluble Carbonates or Phosphates

5.  Alkali Metals

In qualitative analysis, the identity, not the amount, of metal ions present in a mixture is determined. The technique consists of selectively precipitating only a few kinds of metal ions at a time under given sets of conditions. Consecutive precipitation steps become progressively less selective until almost all the metal ions are precipitated.
