New cards
Why are metals strong?
Metals are strong as they have many strong metallic bonds extending in all directions.
3
New cards
Why are metals malleable?
Metals are malleable as layers of ions are able to slide over one another. The delocalised electrons move too and no bonds are broken.
4
New cards
Why are metals good electrical conductors?
Metals are good electrical conductors as delocalised electrons are able to move and therefore a current can flow.
