Question

Which metallic properties are caused by atoms rolling over each other in metallic bonds?

malleability and ductility
shininess and ductility
conductivity, malleability, and shininess
ductility, conductivity, and malleability

Answer 1

The metallic properties that are caused by atoms rolling over each other in metallic bonds are malleability and ductility.the atoms that are being rolled over are delocalized electrons in the sea of electrons in the metallic bond enable them to roll over when stress is applied.

Answer 2

Answer: malleability and ductility

Explanation:-

Malleability is the property of metals to be beaten into sheets. Ductility is the property of metals to be drawn into wires.The delocalized sea of electrons enable the metal atoms to roll over each other when stress is applied and thus they can be converted to sheets or wires.

Shininess of metals is because electrons on the surface can bounce back light at the same frequency as the light hits the surface.

When a wire is connected to a metal, the delocalized electrons are drawn to the positive pole and thus helps in the conduction of electricity.
