1. metallic bond
Wikipedia definition
2. Metallic bondMetallic bonding constitutes the electrostatic attractive forces between the delocalized electrons, called conduction electrons, gathered in an electron cloud, and the positively charged metal ions. Understood as the sharing of "free" electrons among a lattice of positively charged ions, metallic bonding is sometimes compared with that of molten salts; however, this simplistic view holds true for very few metals.
