The correct answer is A. All electrons become free and separate from the nuclei. In metallic bonds, the electrons of the metal atoms are delocalized. The electron in the electron sea can freely roam around or are free to flow.
Answer:
Reduction
Explanation:
The oxidation reduction reactions are called redox reaction. These reactions are take place by gaining or losing the electrons and oxidation state of elements are changed.
Oxidation:
Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.
Reduction:
Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.
In given reaction fluorine gas gain two electron and form fluoride ions.
F₂(g) + 2e⁻ → 2F⁻(aq)
The given reaction is reduction because oxidation state is decreased from zero to -1.
