METALLIC BONDING- metallic structure

Question 1

it occurs between & in…

Answer 1

only metals

Question 2

metal bonds=
non- metal bonds=
metal & non- metal bonds=

Answer 2

• metallic
• covalent
• ionic

Question 3

metal atoms have…

in their outer shells

Answer 3

-only a few

Question 4

they want to…
electrons.
In order for for the metals to bond, they want to…
electrons and they do this by creating a…
Those electrons are between the …
they are able to move under…

Answer 4

• lose (oxidise)
• release
• SEA OF DELOCALISED ELECTRONS
• ORDERED positive metal ions
• the influence of a potential difference

Question 5

why does aluminium have the highest MP/ BP?

Answer 5

because it has the most electrons in the SODE-

so it has a large electrostatic force.

Question 6

how many electrons do they lose?

Answer 6

the amount of electrons that are in their outer shell

the group number

Question 7

melting and boiling points of metal ions

Answer 7

the more electrons a metal wants to lose,
the higher the ion charge will become
and the electrons there will be in the sea of delocalised electrons.

lower charge + fewer electrons in sode=
lowest electrostatic force, least energy needed.

higher charged ions + more electrons in sode-=
highest electrostatic force, most energy needed
