metallic bonding

• What type of bonding occurs between metal atoms?

  Metallic bonding
• What characteristic properties arise from metallic bonding?

  Strength, high melting and boiling points
• How do metals bond to non-metals?

  Through ionic bonding
• How do non-metals bond to other non-metals?

  Through covalent bonding
• What happens to outer shell electrons in metallic bonding?

  They are shared among all atoms
• What do we call electrons that are free to move in metals?

  Delocalized electrons
• What type of attraction holds the structure of metals together?

  Strong electrostatic attraction
• Why do metals have high melting and boiling points?

  Due to strong metallic bonding
• Why are metals good conductors of electricity and heat?

  Delocalized electrons carry energy
• What does it mean for metals to be malleable?

  They can be bent or hammered into shapes
• How does the regular structure of metals affect their malleability?

  Layers can slide over one another
• What is the purpose of creating alloys?

  To make harder metals
• How are alloys typically made?

  By mixing different metals or a metal and non-metal
• Why do different sized atoms in alloys help their hardness?

  They disrupt the regular structure
• What is steel primarily made of?

  Iron
• What percentage of carbon is typically found in steel?

  1 to 2 percent
• What additional elements can be found in steel for specific properties?

  Chromium, manganese, or vanadium
• Why is steel used in cars and planes?

  It provides necessary strength
