The very heart of bonding is the attraction of positive and negative charges. There are three standard types of bonding among metallic and nonmetallicÊatoms. Non metallic atoms that can bond to other non metallic atoms is called covalent bonding. Non metallic atoms that can bond to metallic atoms is called ionic bonding. And lastly, metallic atoms that can bond to other metallic atoms is called metallic bonding.
Metallic Bonding occurs between metals. If you are looking for the castlelearning answer were the answer choices were sulfur, copper, fluorine, and carbon, the answer would be copper. Hope this helped:)
the metallic bond
Metallic usually refers to a finish (paint, trim), meaning it looks(shiny/ highly reflective)or contains metal (old metallic paint had metal flake in it to give a glitter effect.)
In order to form an ionic bond, you need a metal and a non-metal. That would be one element to the right of the stairstep on the periodic table, and one from the left side. If they are both metals, it forms a metallic bond, and if they are both non-metals, it forms a covalent bond. Ionic bonds 'give and take' electrons compared to the 'sharing' of electrons in covalent bonds or the 'electron sea model' of metallic bonds. Ionic bonds are stronger than covalent bonds. They are also more brittle (less maleable) and don't have an odor. (Think gasoline compared to salt - 'NaCl')
Metallic bonds are formed in elemnts that have a metallic form . For example sodium magnesium, iron, nickel , aluminium, copper, silver, gold etc etc.
Hydrogen Bonds
Free- Roaming electrons, and conductivity
these are called alloys steel is an alloy of iron, carbon, and other substances to give it specific properties. bronze and brass are alloys of copper and tin or copper and zinc.
The valence electrons of all the metal atoms go into delocalized bonds which cover the entire crystal lattice. These electrons are free to move around and give metals their special properties such as good electrical and thermal conduction. This situation is sometimes pictured as a regular array of metal ions floating in a 'sea' of electrons. Some of the characteristics of metallic bonding are that the substance will be very hard, made of some sort of metal, usually a gray or silver color, and most likely it will be somewhat shiny. Electrons move freely among many metal nuclei.
Because metal has a very hard yet maluble molecular structure. Also, metallic bonds allow metals to be flattened, hammered into sheets, or drawn into wires. In other words, metallic bonds give metals the ability to be ductile and mallaeble.
A metal that contains other elements to give it specific properties is called an Alloy. Many metals can contain other elements to give the metal specific properties. Steel is an alloy of Iron and carbon. Stainless steels contain various other alloying elements such as Chromium and Nickel.
