Document Summary

We don"t put k in humans because there is lots of water in us: screws up electrolyte balance and may start a fire in us. We use metals that are not very reactive: nickel = toxic. Unlike ionic bonds (localized charge on given atoms) Unlike covalent bonds (2 electrons typically shared between 2 atoms) In pure metals, a crystalline structure involves: atomic nuclei in fixed patterns, electrons that are mobile less linked to one nucleus. Because of this bonding, metals are ductile readily deformed yet maintain bonding and conductivity. Atoms with positive charge are chemically oxidized relative to their elemental condition i. e. those with more electrons than protons: such as fe3+, fe2+, fe. Battery: captures electrons and use the charge in your phone. The likelihood that a species will be reduced. We mostly worry about metals going through oxidation and accompanying erosion. Electrons flow from platinum electrode to copper electrode.
