The structure of metals
The arrangement of the atoms
•Metals are giant structures of atoms held together by metallic bonds
•Metallic bonds - atoms surrounded by delocalised electrons ("sea of electrons")

The structure of metals
• The electrons can move freely within the metallic bonds
• each electron becomes detached from its parent atom - the electrons are delocalised
• The metal is held together by the strong forces of attraction between the positive nuclei and the delocalised electrons

The structure of metals
• The more electrons you can involve - the stronger the attractions
• Transition metals tend to have particularly high melting points and boiling points
• They can involve many delocalised electrons
• Metallic character increases as we move to the right of the periodic table

The Corrosion of Metals
Most metals react with their surroundings to form oxides and hydroxides
E.g. copper forms copper hydroxide
iron rusts to form iron oxide
Sodium corrodes in air to form a layer of sodium oxide on the metal surface

Only a few metals can resist corrosion:•Gold & Platinum (don’t react with oxygen)•Stainless steel (iron + carbon + chromium (form stable film against corrosion)

What Happens When Iron Rusts?
• Rusting involves iron atoms (metal) losing electrons to
form ions. It occurs over two steps
Fe(s) Fe2+(aq) + 2e-
Fe2+(aq) Fe3+
(aq) + e-
• The electrons lost from the iron are accepted by the water
and oxygen
2H2O(l) + O2(g) + 4e- 4OH-(aq)

Experimental Conclusions
1. Water and oxygen are both required for rusting
to take place
2. An electrolyte must also be present and the
speed of rusting is increased
3. An electrolyte is an ionic substance dissolved in
water and provides free ions to carry a current

Displacement Reactions
• Chemical reaction in which a less reactive element is replaced in a compound by a more reactive one
• For example, the addition of zinc metal to a solution of copper(II) sulphate displaces copper metal:
• Zn(s) + CuSO4(aq) → ZnSO4(aq) + Cu(s)
• The copper is taken out of the solution and is deposited as a solid
• In the electrochemical series an element can be displaced from a compound by any element above it in the series

Corrosion and the Reactivity series
• The more negative the metal in the series the more reactive it is (its reaction is fast and more exothermic) - it wants to lose electrons to form an oxide
• Therefore the reverse reaction becomes difficult (oxide -> pure metal)
• Hard to extract a metal from its ore (stable)
• The pure metal is also more susceptible to corrosion with oxygen and water

Atomic radius
• Elements with a large atomic radius are high on the reactivity series (lose electrons easily)
• The number of protons increases across a period as does the effective nuclear charge
• Electrons within a shell cannot shield each other from the attraction to protons
• This causes the atomic radius to shrink (less reactive)

Methods of Protection
There are two main methods of protecting metals
from corrosion:
Physical protection - placing a barrier to water and
oxygen on the surface of the metal
Chemical Protection - providing the metal with a
source of electrons to prevent oxidation

Physical Protection
Electro-plating - coating the iron with a less
reactive metal• Gold, silver, chromium, and copper
are a few of the metals that can be used
as coatings
•The metal item to be plated is used as
the negative (-) electrode
•The item is placed in a solution of the
metal coating
•The metal in solution is reduced from
ions to atoms and deposited on the
metal item

Physical Protection
Galvanizing - coating the iron with zinc
• The iron or steel is dipped in
molten zinc
• The zinc provides a physical
coating on the surface
• If the zinc coating is damaged
sacrificial protection occurs. This
also is a form of chemical protection
(see later)
• This is expensive and requires
special equipment to achieve31
