Answer:

are localized and stay between metal atoms

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because metallic bonding refers to the sharing of electrons in metal ions and theses electrons acts like glue and give the metal a definite shape. when aluminum atoms come together within the metal atoms, the outer electrons then move from individual atoms to form electron cloud. the valence electrons have mobility ability and are have the capability to conduct heat and electricity easily.
