Properties of Metals
• Metals also reflect light. This is a property called luster.
• Metals are malleable (MAL ee uh bul), which means they can be hammered or rolled into sheets.
• Metals are also ductile, which means they can be drawn into wires.

Section
1 Metals
Ionic Bonding in Metals
• The atoms of metals generally have one to three electrons in their outer energy levels.
• In chemical reactions, metals tend to give up electrons easily because of the strength of charge of the protons in the nucleus.
![Page 7: Elements and Their Propertiesmikeprovost.weebly.com/uploads/2/5/2/8/25282938/gps_ch17.pdfProperties of Metals • Metals usually have common properties they are good conductors of](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043016/5f38cd59e809df26d618809e/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Section
1 Metals
Ionic Bonding in Metals
• When metals combine with nonmetals, the atoms of the metals tend to lose electrons to the atoms of nonmetals, forming ionic bonds.
• Both metals and nonmetals become more chemically stable when they form ions.
![Page 8: Elements and Their Propertiesmikeprovost.weebly.com/uploads/2/5/2/8/25282938/gps_ch17.pdfProperties of Metals • Metals usually have common properties they are good conductors of](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043016/5f38cd59e809df26d618809e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Section
1 Metals
Metallic Bonding
• In metallic bonding, positively charged metallic ions are surrounded by a sea of electrons.
• Outer-level electrons are not held tightly to the nucleus of an atom. Rather, the electrons move freely among many positively charged ions.
![Page 9: Elements and Their Propertiesmikeprovost.weebly.com/uploads/2/5/2/8/25282938/gps_ch17.pdfProperties of Metals • Metals usually have common properties they are good conductors of](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022043016/5f38cd59e809df26d618809e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Section
1 Metals
Metallic Bonding
• The idea of metallic bonding explains many of the properties of metals.
• When a metal is hammered into a sheet or drawn into a wire, it does not break because the ions are in layers that slide past one another without losing their attraction to the electron sea.
• Metals are also good conductors of electricity because the outer-level electrons are weakly held and can move relatively feely.

Section
1 Metals
The Alkali Metals
• The alkali metals are the most reactive of all the metals. They react rapidly, sometimes violently, with oxygen and water.
• Alkali metals don’t occur in nature in their elemental form and are stored in substances that are unreactive, such as an oil.

Section
1 Metals
The Alkali Metals
• Each atom of an alkali metal has one electron in its outer energy level.
• This electron is given up when an alkali metal combines with another atom.
• As a result, the alkali metal becomes a positively charged ion in a compound such as sodium chloride.
