300
Metallic bonds give metals certain properties. One of the properties is ductility. What is ductility?
Ductility is the ability to be made into wires.
400
Would two positive ions make bonds?Why?
No, because alike charges are not attracted to each other.

What are qualities of substances that are bonded by ionic bonds?
They are hard, brittle, and have high melting points.
500
What are the qualities of a substance that is bonded by covalent bonds?
The qualities are low melting and boiling point, also they tend to be brittle when in a solid state.
500

Why are metals so malleable?

because of the sea of electrons.
