METAL LO: Describe the structure of metals (D)
Explain how metals form bonds (C) Explain why the properties of a metal occur (B) Use the model of metallic bonding to account for the properties of metals (A/A*) Starter Do metals have high or low melting points ? What does this tell you about the bonding of the atoms ?

5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Metal symbols Metal properties Magnetic elements
Metals used in jewellery 1 Metal that is liquid at room temperature
4
Metal / Non-metal = Ionic
Non-metal / Non-metal = Covalent Metal / Metal = Metallic
5
Metal crystals Metals are made of grains.
These grains order themselves to form metal crystals. Steel dipped in zinc is galvanised steel and the crystals are clearly visible.
7
Metallic Bonding Fixed metal ions Sea of delocalised electrons
More electrons in the outer shell = More electrons in the sea This makes the bond even stronger. The metals will have a higher melting point.

Metals are ductile and malleable because the metal ions are free to slide on each other in the sea of delocalised electrons.
