What are some properties that are unique to metals?
Wrought iron is a very pure form of iron that contains trace amounts of carbon. It is a tough, malleable, ductile, and corrosion-resistant material that melts at very high temperatures.

5. Metallic Bonds and Metallic Properties
The valence electrons of atoms in a pure metal can be modeled as a sea of electrons.
The valence electrons are mobile and can drift freely from one part of the metal to another.

7. Metallic Bonds and Metallic Properties
Metallic bonds are the forces of attraction between the free-floating valence electrons and the positively charged metal ions.
These bonds hold metals together.

Properties of Metals
Metals are good conductors of electric current because electrons can flow freely in the metal.
As electrons enter one end of a metal, an equal number of electrons leave the other end.

Ionic crystal
If an ionic crystal is struck with a hammer, the blow tends to push the positive ions close together.
The positive ions repel one another, and the crystal shatters.

Crystalline Structure of Metals
Body-centered cubic structure; every atom (except those on the surface) has eight neighbors.
Chromium
The metallic elements sodium, potassium, iron, chromium, and tungsten crystallize in a body-centered cubic pattern.

27. The most important alloys today are steels.
The principal elements in most steels, in addition to iron and carbon, are boron, chromium, manganese, molybdenum, nickel,
tungsten, and vanadium.
Stainless Steel
80.6% Fe

29. Alloys can form from their component atoms in different ways.
If the atoms of the components in an alloy are about the same size, they can replace each other in the crystal.
This type of alloy is called a substitutional alloy.

30. Alloys can form from their component atoms in different ways.
If the atoms of the components in an alloy are about the same size, they can replace each other in the crystal.
This type of alloy is called a substitutional alloy.
If the atomic sizes are quite different, the smaller atoms can fit into the spaces between the larger atoms.
Such an alloy is called an interstitial alloy.
