Intro to Chemistry: Metallic Bonding

[SuperMctank]

Thank you to you both. I am studying natural medicine in sydney and i fund your videos enlightening....this has helped me understand this amazing subject so much better!

[chrispyery]

Such an awesome video!!!! xD

I was just wondering...

In a simple sentence, how would you define a metallic bond?

@materialGirl823: good luck on your test

[MaterialGirl823]

i wish you guys were my chemistry teachers....thanks to you i might actually pass my test tomorrow....thank you so much!!!!

[Flowatyk]

You guys are the best! If there were more teachers like you two, this world would be a better place!

@gosh great question. You can have metallic bonds between unlike metallic atoms.  This is called an alloy.

[goshiluvarchie]

Quick question: Do metallic bonds only occur between the same metallic atoms? Like, the diagram showed bonds between the copper atoms. Can you have different metallic atoms attracting to one another??

[goshiluvarchie]

Thanks! That was so helpful! And funny intro :D

@20raeali12: thanks for the kind words.  We are humbled that so many have benefited from these videos.

[20raeali12]

I want you as my teachers!

[robobrain10000]

That makes soo much more sense

[ECGMB]

if you would remove all (or almost all) the electrons, would it weaken the metallic bonding?

quit your job and start making videos.

@itsme2011malik Now look up english videos....

That last slide was very helpful. None of my teachers explained why the bond is actually created.
