Question

Which of the following statements is true?

A. Delocalized electrons conduct electricity poorly.
B. There is a strong attraction between positively charged metal ions and the sea of electrons.
C. Metals with a delocalized electron sea break apart when struck instead of bending.
D. Metals have high melting points and low boiling points.

Answer 1

B. There is a strong attraction between positively charged metal ions and the sea of electrons. - true

Answer 2

Answer: B. There is a strong attraction between positively charged metal ions and the sea of electrons.

Explanation: Delocalized electrons conduct electricity with high potentil as the electrons are not localized in on place. Thus statement A is wrong.

Metals with a delocalized electron sea doesnot break apart when struck instaed of bending. Thus statement C is also wrong.

Metals donot have high melting point rather they have low melting point.

Statement B is true as there is a strong attraction beween positively charged metal ions and the sea of electrons.
