Answer | Question |
---|---|
Metallic Bonding | Chemical bond as a result of attraction between metal atoms and sea of electrons |
Sea of Electrons | Mobile (delocalized) electrons around metal atoms; in a crystal lattice |
Delocalization | Does not belong to any one atom but moves about empty atomic orbitals of metals |
Metallic Properties | Strong absorber/reflects light, Luster, Malleable, Ductile, ability to move in a network of metal atoms allows for higher electrical and thermal conductivity |
Enthalpy of Vaporization: | Amount of energy absorbed as heat when a specific amount of a substance vaporizes at a constant pressure |
