Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In a pure metal, the electrons can be thought of as [concentrated] around atoms throughout the metal. Using molecular orbital theory, there [is ] an energy gap between the filled molecular orbitals and empty molecular orbitals. The [antibonding] orbitals are typically higher in energy and are mostly (filled]
