Before delving into metallic bonding, viewers are provided with an overview of why bonding occurs, learn about Gilbert Lewis's Octet rule and why the elements in the periodic table are categorized. We discuss the importance of the 'sea' of electrons and how this explains the many properties of metal including their shine, and their ability to conduct electricity and heat. We are then introduced to the different types of geometric arrangements including body-centered cubic, face-centered cubic and hexagonal close-packing. With the assistance of animated graphics, join us as we bring metallic bonding to life.
