Question

When describing metallic bonding, scientists note that the metal ions seem to be floating in a sea of electrons. This arrangement contributes to the physical property of in metals.

Answer 1

True

Explanation:

Metallic bonds joins atoms of metals and alloys together. The formation of this bond type is favored by large atomic radius, low ionization energy and a large number of electrons in the valence shell.

• This bond type is actually an attraction between the positive nuclei of all closely packed atoms in the lattice and the electron cloud jointly formed by all atoms.
• Some of the physical properties of metals such as malleability, ductility, electrical and thermal conductivity, luster, high melting point e.t.c stems from this.
