Attraction between positive metal ions and delocalised electrons
Positive ions in regular pattern surrounded by sea of delocalised e−e^-e−
Outer electrons free to move throughout the structure
Delocalised electrons are free to move
Electrostatic attraction between positive ions and delocalised e−e^-e−
Stronger metallic bonds (more delocalised electrons)
Mg2+\text{Mg}^{2+}Mg2+ stronger bonding than Na+\text{Na}^{+}Na+
Weaker bond due to larger atomic radius
Weaker due to larger atomic radius
Conductivity and malleability
