2. Metallic Bonding - Chemistry - Socratic

   socratic.org/chemistry/bonding-basics/metallic-bonding

   The ability to conduct electricity in the solid state is a characteristic of metallic bonding. What is this characteristic best explained by? The melting points of the Period 3 metals sodium and magnesium are shown below.

3. Why are metallic bonds non directional? - Socratic

   socratic.org/questions/why-are-metallic-bonds-non-directional

   See explanation. When we think of the type of bondings in metals, we should take into consideration the difficulty in separating metallic atoms from each other (metals are hard materials), with the possibility of moving them around ( malleability and ductility ). Moreover, the conductivity of electricity and heat in all directions. Taking all these facts into consideration, the bonds in metals ...

4. Properties of ionic, covalent, and metallic compounds

   socratic.org/chemistry/bonding-basics/properties-of-ionic-covalent-and...

   Ionic compounds tend to be crystalline structures with high melting points that are water soluble. Covalent bonds are highly stable bonds with low melting points. Many covalent compounds are flexible or gaseous and are not water soluble. Metallic compounds contain freely floating electrons which allow them to conduct electricity and heat well.

   Metallic bonds are formed by spreading electrons between metal cations in a metallic network: It could be between the same metal, or different metals, i.e. alloys made from elements on the left-hand side of the periodic table and/or the #d#-block. A common example is brass, which might have #"Cu"^+# with #"Zn"^(2+)# in a metallic network.

6. How can I draw metallic bonds? - Socratic

   socratic.org/questions/how-can-i-draw-metallic-bonds

   It's like ionic bonding but with a "sea of electrons". Metallic bonding is bonding between metal ions in a metal. Metals tend to form cations. In metallic bonding, metals become cations and release out electrons in the open. When there are many of these cations, there are also lots of electrons. These electrons are "delocalised" and do not belong to the metal ions anymore. This creates an ...

7. Why are metallic bonds ductile? - Socratic

   socratic.org/questions/why-are-metallic-bonds-ductile

   Because the delocalised electrons are free to move. Metallic bonds are formed by the electrostatic attraction between the positively charged metal ions, which form regular layers, and the negatively charged delocalised electrons. These are the electrons which used to be in the outer shell of the metal atoms. These delocalised electrons are free to move throughout the giant metallic lattice, so ...

8. How does metallic bonding contribute to a metal s malleability?

   socratic.org/questions/how-does-metallic-bonding-contribute-to-a-metal-s...

   Remember the definition of malleability: capable of being hammered out (cf. malleus , Latin for hammer!). The property of malleability derives from the non-localized metallic bonding, " positive ions in a sea of electrons ". Each metal atom contributes several electrons to the overall structure, leaving positively charged metal nuclei in an electron sea. The positively charged metal nuclei are ...

9. How does metallic bonding affect conductivity? - Socratic

   socratic.org/questions/how-does-metallic-bonding-affect-conductivity

   Through delocalised electrons. Metals exist in atom state. Metallic bonding is the bond that exist between the atoms. The electrons do not only flow at its respective atoms but instead, contribute to a sea of delocalised electrons. As a result, metals can conduct electricity as the delocalised electrons are able to carry charges.

    Metallic bonding and ionic bonding Copper wire consists of Cu nuclei (that are positively charged due to the positively charged protons) that are surrounded by a "sea" of delocalized electrons (that are negatively charged that move freely throughout the material which is known as metallic bonding. NaCl (known commonly as table salt) consists of positively charged Na^+ ions being attracted to ...

11. Which are some effects of metallic bonding? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/which-are-some-effects-of-metallic-bonding

    Metallic bonding is classed as positive ions floating in a "sea" of delocalised electrons, this allows firstly for a very strong bond, as it's ion based, therefore it's held together by the electrostatic attraction , and the important part, which I think is what you're after is that the delocalised electrons can carry an electric current, therefore are conductive
