How do metals bond with each other

Metallic bonding  

Metals have low ionization energies. Therefore, their valence electrons are easily delocalized (attracted to the neighbouring metal atoms). These delocalized electrons are then not associated with a specific metal atom.  Since the electrons are “free”, the metal atoms have become cations, and the electrons are free to move throughout the whole crystalline structure.

We say that a metal consists of an array of cations immersed in a sea of electrons. The electrons act as a “glue” holding the cations together.

Metallic bonds are the attractive forces between the metal cations and the sea of electrons.

i dont knowi dont know and thank you for the points

Explanation:

answer: - 3.) the oxidation state of nitrogen in no changes from +2 to 0, and the oxidation state of carbon in co changes from +2 to +4 as the reaction proceeds.

solution: - as per the rules, oxidation number of oxygen in its compounds is -2. the sum of oxidation numbers of all the elements of a molecule or compound is zero.

also, the oxidation number in elemental form is zero.

in no, the oxidation number of o is -2 so the oxidation number of n is +2 so that the sum is zero.

similarly, the oxidation number of c in co is +2 and o is -2.

on product side the oxidation number of n is 0 as it is in the elemental form() .

oxidation number of c in carbon dioxide is +4 as there are two oxygen in it and we know that each oxygen is -2.

so, oxidation number of n is changing from +2 to 0 and the oxidation number of c is changing from +2 to +4.

since nitrogen is reduced and hence no is acting as an oxidizing agent. carbon is oxidized and so co is acting as a reducing agent.

so, the right choice is number 3.)the oxidation state of nitrogen in no changes from +2 to 0, and the oxidation state of carbon in co changes from +2 to +4 as the reaction proceeds.

"hydrogen bonding is the attraction of h atoms in the water molecule (slight + charge) to o atoms in a neighboring water molecule (slight - charge); it is a weak interatomic force. but it is still strong enough to the water molecules "stick" together."
