Electrons have wavelike and particulate properties. This means that electrons are in orbitals defined by a

probability. Each orbital at discrete energy level determined by quantum

numbers. (like x, y, z) Quantum # Designation

• Prevalent in ceramics and polymers

• Arises from a sea of donated valence electrons (1, 2, or 3 from each atom).

Much easier to deform materials with metallic than with ionic bonding. Why?

• Sliding atom planes over each other (deformation) very unfavorable energetically in ionic solids!

Why does thermal expansion Why does thermal expansion occur?occur?

As atoms vibrate, easy to move apart, but difficult to move closer

As temperature increases, average bond length increases.
