2.4 How do elements <br />combine to form minerals?

This diagram illustrates a cross section across the atomic structure of a metal. Metallic bonds form where electrons freely roam between nuclei. At any one time, each atom experiences a neutral charge because as one electron leaves the proximity of a nucleus another replaces it.
