Chapter 2, Problem 2.42PAE
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

We know that metals are good conductors of electricity. Explain the same considering metallic bonding with reference of movement of free electrons.

Concept introduction:

There are two kinds of conductor, in general, metallic and electrolytic. The electrolytic conductors show conductance due to free movement of ions (cation and anion), while the metallic conductors are conducting due to free movement of electrons in them.
