Lesson Summary. The metallic bond is a unique type of chemical bond found in metal elements. In a sample of metal, the valence electrons detach from the atoms and are free to move throughout the metal. This results in a sea of electrons, or big pool of delocalized or valence electrons.
Metallic bonds. All metals are made up of a vast collection of ions that are held together by metallic bonds. A metal atom has a positive nucleus with negative electrons outside of it. In a solid, each atom loses the outermost electron, which takes part in bonding. They form a lattice of regularly spaced positive ions.
