# data[].attributes.body
Metals have very strong attractive forces (bond) between the particles, therefore the amount of energy needed to break those bonds are also high.

# data[].attributes.body
They have free ions that electrons can be conducted to

# data[].attributes.body
This is because metals have free electrons between the atoms.

# data[].attributes.body
The metal particles have the perfect distance to conduct heat and electricity, not too far or not too close.

# data[].attributes.body
A pure metal's atoms are of the same size and are packed within a regular lattice, allowing them to slip and slide on top of each other.

# data[].attributes.body
A metal's particles are tightly packed, thus the vibration caused by heat can be transferred very quickly from atom to atom.

# data[].attributes.body
Metals have high density because they have many atoms closely packed together. Metals have high melting and boiling points because the metallic bonds on the structure is strong. Needing a large amount of energy to overcome the metallic bonds.

# data[].attributes.body
Metals are bonded differently from non-metal because the electrons flow in sort of a sea around the nuclei, which causes them to be more malleable.

# data[].attributes.body
Metals have such properties because the metallic bonding between the particles in the giant lattice structure. Therefore, a large energy is required in order to break this greatly bonded structure.

# data[].attributes.body
This is because the structure of the atoms in metals are very close to each other, so vibrations can be passed quickly

# data[].attributes.body
Metals conduct electricity because the metal have free electrons that can conduct electricity.

# data[].attributes.body
The electrons are more free.

# data[].attributes.body
Metals are made of layers of atoms, therefore it can slip and slide over each other, making it malleable and ductile

# data[].attributes.body
A metal has tightly packed atoms in a neat lattice which are held together by strong metallic bonds. This means changes of states require large amounts of energy to occur to break those metallic bonds, meaning a high melting and boiling point, along with a high density.

# data[].attributes.body
The electrons can move around freely and carry more heat around.

# data[].attributes.body
The atoms in a metal are firmly packed in layers and are also held together by strong metallic bonds which is the force that holds atoms together in a metallic substance.

# data[].attributes.body
Metals conduct heat because the particles in the metal are packed together and can transfer the heat from one atom to another atom easier.

# data[].attributes.body
they have free electron(s)

# data[].attributes.body
Metals usually have more nucleons than non-metals and have loose electrons.

# data[].attributes.body
The electrons inside the metal are free to move.

# data[].attributes.body
Metals are ductile and malleable because the atoms are able to pass each other (roll over each other) into a new position without needing to break the metallic bond.

# data[].attributes.body
Their particles are closely packed so the vibrations are passed on very quickly and not only that, they also contain a lot of free electrons.

# data[].attributes.body
Because they have free ions, therefore electrons are able to carry electricity across it.

# data[].attributes.body
Metal's layers of ion can slide over each other, but are still held together by the dispersed electrons.

# data[].attributes.body
Metals are ductile and malleable because of their ability of the atoms to roll over at each other into new positions without breaking the metallic bond.

# data[].attributes.body
Density : Metals are dense because the atoms are packed into a small space.

Melting Point : The number of electrostatic force that needs to be broken is extremely large.

Boiling Point : The number of electrostatic force that needs to be broken is extremely large.

# data[].attributes.body
The metal atom is packed into a very small space, that is why they are high in density. And their strong bond is the reason why it has a high melting and boiling point.

# data[].attributes.body
The electrons can move around easily, and they can carry heat from one part to another.

# data[].attributes.body
The particles in metals are closely packed, so any vibrations spread quickly. The free electrons also made it much easier to transfer energy.

# data[].attributes.body
Metals conduct electricity because electrons inside the metal are free to move. So when electricity pass through metals, electrons carry electricity and spread it all over the metal, which makes them good conductors of electricity.

# data[].attributes.body
Metals are squished together tightly, and they're held really tight. That makes them heavy and tough to melt or boil, like turning ice into water and then steam. Breaking their tight hold needs a ton of heat, so metals need a big fire to change into liquid or steam.

# data[].attributes.body
The atoms are able to slide past each other while not breaking the bond

# data[].attributes.body
Metals are ductile and malleable because their atoms can easily slide past each other without breaking due to the unique arrangement of atoms and the presence of delocalized electrons in metallic bonding

# data[].attributes.body
Ductile : Metal's layers of ions can slide over each other. However, they are still held by delocalised electrons

Malleable : Metals are malleable because they have layers of atoms

# data[].attributes.body
Metals conducts electricity because they have free electrons

# data[].attributes.body
Metals are good heat conductors because their particles are packed close together, so when the particles vibrate, it travels quickly.
