Metal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1019 words) |
 | Metals are sometimes described as a lattice of positive ions surrounded by a cloud of delocalized electrons. |
 | The metals are one of the three groups of elements as distinguished by their ionisation and bonding properties, along with the metalloids and nonmetals. |
