Metallic Bonds - Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure
|
Metallic Bond:
(a) Favourable conditions to form Metallic Bond:
· Formed between Electro positive ions packed in one of the 3 arrangements (1.CCP(or FCC), 2.HCP, 3 BCC)
(b) Properties:
· Negatively charged electrons hold the ion together
· Highly conducting becauls the mobility of these electrons through the lattice
· High m.p and b.p
· If soluble, then soluble only in polar solvents of high dielectric constant
