Abstract:
This work briefly describes some of the different features of groups of
metals. It highlights recent progress in research into metals. It details the
structures and defects in solid metals. The common theories of metals
including the free electron theory, band theory, the ions in a sea of
electrons model and the soft sphere model are discussed and their merits
are considered. It describes distinctions between the bonding in metals
and inter-metallic compounds. It shows the influence of bonding on the
properties of metals and alloys and provides a summary of tradition and
newer uses of metals.
