Question

metallic bonds are responsible for many properties of metals, such as conductivity. why is this possible? (1 point)
the bonds can shift because valence electrons are held loosely and move freely
metals have low electronegativity, so they are conductive because they pass charges easily
two metals bonded together are going to be more conductive than a metal bonded with a nonmetal
an attraction between a positive charge and a negative charge is created

Explanation:

Metallic bonding features a "sea of delocalized" valence electrons that are not tightly bound to individual metal atoms. These free-moving electrons can carry electric charge, which enables electrical conductivity. The correct option directly links the loose, freely moving valence electrons to the conductivity property from metallic bonds.

Answer:

The bonds can shift because valence electrons are held loosely and move freely
