Show answerHide answer
Answer: A
A metallic bond is the electrostatic attraction between positive metal ions and delocalized electrons.
Question 2
Which particles are present in the metallic bonding model?
- ANegative nonmetal ions and protons
- BPositive metal ions and delocalized electrons
- COnly neutral atoms
- DPositive and negative molecules
Show answerHide answer
Answer: B
Metallic bonding is explained by positive metal ions surrounded by delocalized electrons.
Question 3
What is meant by a sea of electrons in metallic bonding?
- AElectrons fixed between two atoms
- BElectrons inside the nucleus
- CDelocalized electrons moving throughout the metal lattice
- DElectrons transferred to nonmetals
Show answerHide answer
Answer: C
The sea of electrons refers to mobile delocalized valence electrons throughout the metal structure.
Question 4
Which property of metals is explained by mobile electrons?
- ABrittleness
