Metals allow electric charge to move freely through them. Metals have a sea of delocalized electrons that are able to move freely throughout the metal structure.

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.

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

792.72g/L

Explanation:

density formula

density = mass/volume in L

so the density of acetone = 43.6/0.055

How many atoms are in a sample of 175 grams of sodium (na)? 1.42 × 10^27 atoms 4.58 × 10^24 atoms 6.68 × 10^-21 atoms 1.26 × 10^
Alenkasestr [34]
Atomic mass Na = 22.99 u.m.a

22.99 g ------------------ 6.02x10²³ atoms
175 g -------------------- ?? atoms

175 x (6.02x10²³) / 22.99 => 4.58x10²⁴ atoms

hope this helps!
