Answer is: because of delocalized electrons in metallic bond.

Substances with metallic bond conduct an electric current in liquid and solid state, because they have mobile electrons.

Most metals have strong metallic bond, because strong electrostatic attractive force between valence electrons (metals usually have low ionization energy and lose electrons easy) and positively charged metal ions.

1. Metallic bond is a type of chemical bond.  

2. Metallic bond is formed between electrons and positively charged metal ions.  

3. Metallic radius is defined as one-half of the distance between the two adjacent metal ions.  

4. Metallic bond increace electrical and thermal conductivity.  

5. Metals conduct heat, because when free moving electrons gain energy (heat) they vibrate more quickly and can move around.

Is atmosphere nitrogen denser than pure nitrogen​
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Atmospheric nitrogen is not heavier than chemical nitrogen, largely because “chemical nitrogen” is ultimately derived from atmospheric nitrogen. On the other hand, you could be asking why the atomic mass of nitrogen is not the same as the mass of nitrogen gas; that's because gaseous nitrogen is diatomic, .
