How does the nature of the metallic bond explain the observation that most metals can be drawn into wire?

The metallic bonding within metals is caused by electrons that are interchangeable between metal atoms. This means the lines are blurred when it comes to where one atom stops and another starts. This seamless "sea" of electrons means metals are more ductile and less brittle, because of the "blending" of the atoms together. This is also the reason why metals are excellent conductors of heat and electricity.

∙ 14y agoThis question is worded strangely. I would say that the answer they are looking for is DUCTILE. When a metal is ductile, it means it can be drawn out into thin wires.

What allows metals to be bent but not broken?
Welding The nondirectional nature of metallic bonding.
What elements are in metallic bonding?
Although the term "metallic bond" is often used in contrast to the term "covalent bond", it is preferable to use the term metallic bonding, because this type of bonding is collective in nature and a single "metallic bond" does not exist. Not all metals exhibit metallic bonding: one such example is themercurous ion (Hg2+2), which forms covalent metal-metal bonds.However the vast majority of metals have a metallic bond.
What is a strong indication of an element metallic or non metallic nature?
Whether it conducts electricity or magnetism well. If it does, it is definitely a metal, although not all metals conduct electricity or magnetism.
What are some characteristics of transitional metals?
Their last two shells are incompletely filled. They are metallic in nature, i.e., they donate their valence electrons in a reaction.
What is the group name of column 1 on the periodic table?
The group name of column 1 is alkali metals. They are metallic and basic in nature.

Are non metals oxide or bases?
Most of the non-metallic oxides are acidic in nature as CO2, SO3 and P2O5 but some non-metallic oxides are neutral as oxides of nitrogen.

What is the group name of column 1 on the periodic table?
The group name of column 1 is alkali metals. They are metallic and basic in nature.
What are metal oars?
Metal ores are metallic elements found in compounds with other elements in nature. These ores are then separated to produce pure metals.
Can all elements on the periodic table be classified as metals or nonmetals explain?
The elements are classified as metals and non metals. Apart from this, there are elements that are metalloids, transition elements, inert in nature.
