Covalent Bonding
Step 1: Draw the atoms with their outer shell (look at the group number of the element to find out how many outer electrons):
Water, H2O:
Step 2: Put the atoms together and check they all have a full outer shell:

This is one way of showing metallic bonding. The electrons in the outer shell are delocalised (free to move from atom to atom).
In metallic bonding the atoms are in a ________ pattern. The _______ shell electrons are delocalised (they are free to move throughout the structure). The positive _____ are surrounded by a sea of __________ _________. The positive ions are held by _______ electrostatic attractions.
Positive ions
Delocalised electrons
In metallic bonding the atoms are in a regular pattern. The outer shell electrons are delocalised (they are free to move throughout the structure). The positive ions are surrounded by a sea of delocalised electrons. The positive ions are held by strong electrostatic attractions.
