    • What type of bonding occurs between metal atoms?
      Metallic bonding
    • What is formed by metallic bonding?
      A lattice of ions with delocalized electrons
    • What does "delocalized" mean in the context of electrons?
      Electrons are not fixed to one atom
    • Why do metals conduct electricity and heat well?
      Because of free-moving delocalized electrons
    • How do metals bond to non-metals?
      Through ionic bonding
    • What does a group one metal need to do to bond with a group seven atom?
      Lose an electron
    • What happens when a lithium atom bonds with chlorine?
