Chapter 8, Problem 8.23PAE
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: the sea of electrons model account for malleability of metals has to be explained.

Concept introduction:

  • Malleability is the property of a substance which defines its ability to deform under pressure.
  • A rigid substance is non-malleable.
  • In the sea of electrons model, the electrons are delocalized throughout the space around the metal nuclei.
