To determine which element is a metal, we need to refer to the periodic table and examine the properties of each element.

1. Look for the element with the highest number of protons, which in this case is Z with 17 protons.
2. Locate Z on the periodic table.
3. Check the location of Z on the periodic table to determine if it is a metal.

According to the periodic table, Zirconium (Z) has 17 protons. Zirconium is classified as a metal, so the answer is D.
