Answer 1

a more simple answer is (A)

"They are willing to give up their valence electrons."

took the test, hope this helps :)

Answer 2

I can answer with your option here my answer

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The structure and bonding of metals explains their properties : They are electrical conductors because their delocalised electrons carry electrical charge through the metal. They are good conductors of thermal energy because their delocalised electrons transfer energy.
2. They have a simpler electron arrangement.
