Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What type of bond is formed between two metal atoms?
  • Step 1: Identify the two metal atoms that are coming together.
  • Step 2: Understand that metal atoms have electrons that can move freely.
  • Step 3: Recognize that these free-moving electrons create a 'sea of electrons' around the metal atoms.
  • Step 4: Know that this 'sea of electrons' allows the metal atoms to bond together, forming a metallic bond.
  • Step 5: Conclude that the bond formed between the two metal atoms is called a metallic bond.
