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.

Why alloys are mixtures but not compounds?
Elements in alloys are bonded by metallic bonding.
What metals bond with other elements using metallic bonding?
Predominantly transition metals.
What kind of elements normally participate in metallic bonding?
Metallic bonds are the electrostatic bonds between metal atoms. The positively charged metal ions bond with the valence electrons of the bonding metal.
What bonds hold copper together?
Metallic bonding is found in gold or copper
What is it called when different elements join to form a substance?
When different elements join to form a substance, it is called a chemical reaction or a chemical bonding process. During this process, atoms of different elements combine and rearrange to create a new substance with different properties. This can occur through various types of bonding such as ionic bonding, covalent bonding, or metallic bonding.

What are the Two requirements that metals must meet to be suitable as elements?
metallic structure and bonding
What is the bonding structure of Sodium?
Metallic Bonding is the bonding between atoms within metals. The attraction between positive metal ions and free moving electrons is known as the metallic bond. It occurs in metal elements; e.g. iron, copper and sodium

What kind of bonding is Fe?
Elements don't have bonds, only compounds do.
What types of chemical bonding have bronze?
Bronze being a metal alloy, it would be held by metallic bonding.
Is metallic bonding metals or nonmetals?
Covalent bonding is typical of organic compounds which do not contain metal. Metals form either metallic or ionic bonds.
What role do valance electrons playing the formation of compounds and elements?
The valence electrons are the only electrons involved in chemical bonding. In covalent bonding sharing occurs In ionic bonding electrons are tranferrred In metallic bonding they are deloclaised across the lattice
What is the structure and bonding of Iron?
