Which of the following explains why
metals are malleable?
Their high melting points allow them to be flexible
Metal cations reposition themselves until they can find 8 valence electrons
Mobile electrons allow for cations to move when struck and take on a new form
Mobile electrons provide smooth surfaces which are easy to reshape.
Which of the following best describes metallic bonding?
Some metal atoms gain electrons while others lose electrons, resulting in the formation of positive and negative charges.
The valence electrons between the metals become delocalized and can move freely between the metallic cations.
The metal ions form permanent bonds in which they are sharing their valence electrons to obey the octet rule.
The metal atoms use their positive charges to gain additional electrons until every atom has eight valence electrons
