Make it concrete

Analogy

Metallic bonding is like changing a recipe: the particles, amounts and conditions decide what product you can make.

Why now: An analogy helps when the definition feels abstract.

Do this: Match each part of the analogy to the science idea.

Learn it

Metallic bonding has positive metal ions in a sea of delocalised electrons.

Delocalised electrons allow metals to conduct electricity.

Layers of atoms can slide, making metals malleable.
