What is it called when electrons that move freely in metals?

trueThe free-moving electrons in metals account does hold many of the properties of metals. There are three properties.


What statement accurately represents the arrangement of electrons in bohr's?

Electrons travel around the nucleus in fixed energy levels with energies that vary from level to level


The subatomic particles which travel in shells around th nucleus of an atom are?

The nucleus contain protons and neutrons; these particles are also composed from quarks and gluons. Shells are the location of electrons.


Is a nucleus made up of protons and electrons or electrons and neutrons or protons and neutrons?

The nucleus is made up of protons and neutrons; the electrons form electron shells around the nucleus.


Do electrons travel in pairs?

Electrons do not travel in pairs. An atomic or molecular orbital can hold a pair of electrons, which is probably what you're thinking of. The reason for this is that electrons are fermions: two electrons in an atom or molecule cannot have the exact same quantum state. Specifying the orbital uses up 3 of the 4 quantum numbers for describing an electron's quantum state; the last quantum number is the spin angular momentum which can either be +1/2 or -1/2, so two electrons per orbital. After that it's full and no more electrons can go into that orbital. Note that far from "traveling in pairs", fermions really don't like to be even that close to each other. If there are three orbitals at the same energy level, one electron will go into each before they start to "double up".

A material that doesnt allow electrons to move through it easily is an?

insulator...as opposed to a conductor which does allow electrons to travel freely within it.


Why does nonconductive material allow the flow of electricity?

If you mean "dis"allow the flow, it's because electrons cannot travel easily between the atoms of the material.


What is a material that does not let electrons travel through it?

Generally speaking, a material that does not let electrons travel through it, a material that has a very high resistance to electron flow (electric current), is called an insulator.


What material that electricity can travel through easily is?

"conductor" or metals.


Describe how valence electrons in a metal move?

The characteristic that allows some metals to be better conductors of electricity is that they have 'free electrons'. Free Electrons simply means that there is a weaker bond between the electrons on the outer valence shell to the nucleus of the atom, than other atoms. This weak bond allows electrons in metals to become more easily excited (when mechanical means of generation occurs), where the electrons are able to transfer from one atom to another.I imagine this is what the question is asking. Basically, electricity is inherent in the material. Metals have weak bonds in their outer valence electron shell.A: In metals, the atoms move freely, allowing heat to travel faster. :)

What allows valence elections in metals to move throughout the metal?

metal atoms being so close to one another that their outermost level overlap. Cause of the overlapping metallic bonds extend throughout the metal in all direction, so valence electrons can move throughout the metal.
