Malleable/Ductile |
Layers of cations slide over each other easily through the sea of delocalized electrons when a force is applied |
|
Good conductor of electricity and heat |
Delocalized electrons travel freely within the metal lattice and transfer electricity/heat |
|
High melting point |
strong electrostatic forces of attraction between cations and sea of delocalized electrons requires a large amount of energy to overcome |
|
High density |
atoms are packed tightly together in layers and held together by strong metallic bonds |
