Explanation:
Copper wire consists of
...are
Explanation:
See here for metallic bonding, and in an ionic bond there are discrete anions and cations that are held together in a rigid array by electrostatic forces of attraction.
copper wire metallic bonding
Explanation:
in metallic bonding there is a "sea of electrons" that are shared evenly throughout the copper wire. These electrons being free to move from atom to atom cause conductivity, ductility, mailability and the metallic luster seen in metals.
in ionic bonding the electrons are shared unevenly between the sodium ion +1 and the Chlorine ion -1 throughout the crystal structure. This cause the brittle structure of the ionic bond, the very high melting point and lack of conductivity.
