Chemistry

Answer:

(Hope this helps can I pls have brainlist (crown)☺️)

Explanation:

Because the atoms in metals form a matrix through which outside electrons may easily travel, metals are good conductors of electricity and heat. They generate a sea of electrons around the positive nuclei of the interacting metal ions, rather than circling their particular atoms.

The free flow of shared electrons can carry an electric current through a metal. Carbon atoms join with iron atoms to create bonds.
