What kind of bond would form when you combine zinc and zinc?

Answer 1

Well, there aren't many practical ways of doing this other than melting the zinc, but the bonds will always be metallic.

Answer 2

When you combine zinc with zinc, a metallic bond would form. Metallic bonds occur between metal atoms, and they involve the sharing of electrons throughout the structure, leading to a sea of delocalized electrons that move freely between the positively charged metal ions.
