What are atoms held together by a atratction between what?
The electrostaic attraction between atoms (a metal and a nonmetal) occur in ionic compounds.
What holds covalently bound atoms together?
Covalently bound atoms are held together by the sharing of electrons between the corresponding atoms.
Electrons in a metal that are not tightly held by the atoms?
When a metal has electrons that are not tightly held together by any one atom in the crystalline structure it is generally a good conductor of electricity. This is because as current moves into the metal electrons are free to flow and move through the metal. This is the definition of a conductor.
What is a group of atoms held together by energy?
This is a molecule.
Why are atoms and compounds held together?
The atoms in compounds are held together by chemical bonds
How are metal atoms held together?
super glue
How could one describe a metal crystal?
Metal atoms held together by covalent bonds .
What is it that atoms of materials that conduct electricity best tend to be held together by?
Atoms of materials that conduct electricity best tend to be held together by metallic bonds. This is the attraction between positively charged nuclei in metal atoms and the delocalized electrons in the metal.
What is a force that holds together the atoms substance?
Metal atoms are held together by strong Electrostatic forces that make metals typically strong and solid. Non metals are held together by ether Covalent bonds between two non metals, Ionic bonds between a metal and a non metal.
What is a force holds together the atoms in a substance?
Metal atoms are held together by strong Electrostatic forces that make metals typically strong and solid. Non metals are held together by ether Covalent bonds between two non metals, Ionic bonds between a metal and a non metal.
What are atoms held together by a atratction between what?
The electrostaic attraction between atoms (a metal and a nonmetal) occur in ionic compounds.
What is the force that holds compounds together?
Anions and cations are held together by ionic bonds. Metal atoms are held together by metallic bonds. Nonmetals are held together by covalent bonds.
What type of bond holds sodium atoms together?
In sodium metal the atoms are held together by metallic bonds.
How are atoms held together in a in solid potassium metal?
imagine the metal as a "sea", where all of the electrons in the metal are freely flowing throughout the entire substance. the flow of these electrons if what holds them together.
Are metal atoms loosely held?
no
How are atoms held together in molecules?
Various things. If it is a nonmetal and nonmetal it going to be a covalent bond. If it is a metal and nonmetal it is going to be an ionic bond. If it is a metal and metal then it is a metallic bond.
In covalent bond the atoms are held together by?
The atoms are held together by the mutual sharing of electrons between two atoms in a covalent bond.
