Metal atoms are arranged closely packed and orderly in the solid state. Valence electrons of metal atoms can be donated easily and delocalised.
When valence electrons are delocalised, metal ions that are positively-charged are formed.
All delocalised valence electrons move freely between the metallic structure and form a sea of electrons.
The electrostatic force of attraction between the sea of electrons and the positively charged metal ions form the metallic bond. Formation of metallic bond
Metals can conduct electricity due to the free-moving electrons which are delocalised in the sea of electrons.
The electrons that move freely in the metallic structure carry the charges from the negative terminal to the positive terminal when electricity is supplied. Electrical conductivity of metals
