negative particles
Bonding, in general, reduces the potential energy difference between positive and ________, whether they be oppositely charged ions or nuclei and electrons.
Metallic bonding
________ occurs when a large number of metal atoms pool their valence electrons into a delocalized electron "sea "that keeps all the atoms in the sample together.
Metal
________ with nonmetal: electron transport and ionic bonding, as seen in the picture below.
massive number of atoms
The ________ in a metal sample pool their valence electrons in a "sea "of electrons that "flows "between and around each metal- ion core (nucleus + inner electrons), attracting and keeping them together.
Covalent bonding
________ is more frequent between nonmetal atoms and produces distinct molecules.
valence electrons
Each atom in the bond's nucleus pulls the ________ of the other, drawing the atoms together.
valence electrons
Metals have very high boiling points because vaporization involves the complete separation of individual cations with their ________ from all the others.
