New Way Chemistry for Hong Kong A-Level Book 1 1 Chapter 10 Metallic Bonding 10.1Metallic Bonding 10.2Metallic Radius 10.3Factors Affecting the Strength of Metallic Bonding Metallic Bonding 10.4 Metallic Crystals
New Way Chemistry for Hong Kong A-Level Book 1 2 The electron sea model of bonding in metals The structure of metal consists of a giant structure of cationic lattice immersed in a sea of mobile valence electrons. The electrostatic attraction between the delocalized electron cloud and the metallic ions is the metallic bonding Metallic Bonding (SB p.248)
New Way Chemistry for Hong Kong A-Level Book 1 3 Metallic radius (r) is defined as half of the internuclear distance between atoms in a metal crystal Metallic Radius (SB p.249) Atoms in a metallic crystal
New Way Chemistry for Hong Kong A-Level Book 1 4 The metallic bond increases with: 1. decreasing size of the metal atom (i.e. the atomic/metallic radius); 2. increasing number of valence electrons of the metal atom Factors Affecting the Strength of Metallic Bonding (SB p.249) Metals with small and highly charged cations form stronger metallic bonds
