Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

What holds a metallic lattice together?

  1. Shared pairs of electrons between neighbouring atoms
  2. Attraction between positive ions and negative ions
  3. Electrostatic attraction between positive ions and delocalised electrons
  4. Weak forces of attraction between molecules
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: CElectrostatic attraction between positive ions and delocalised electrons
Award 1 mark. There are no negative ions and no molecules in a metal, so the only attraction available is between the fixed positive ions and the sea of electrons around them.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

Why are metals good electrical conductors?

  1. Neutrons move between the layers of ions
  2. Metals contain free protons that carry the current
  3. The positive ions travel towards the negative terminal
  4. Delocalised electrons are free to move and carry charge through the structure
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: DDelocalised electrons are free to move and carry charge through the structure
Award 1 mark. The ions themselves are locked in position, and protons and neutrons never leave the nucleus.

AQA GCSE Chemistry: Metallic bonding and properties of metals FAQ

Is Kramizo free for AQA GCSE students preparing for Chemistry?
Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, with no card required and no trial countdown. That free quota works across every subject and every topic in our bank, so you can mix Metallic bonding and properties of metals practice with other Chemistry topics or even switch to a totally different AQA subject without paying anything. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds detailed progress analytics, but the free tier is the real product — used by thousands of GCSE, IGCSE and CSEC students.
Are the Metallic bonding and properties of metals questions aligned to the official AQA GCSE Chemistry syllabus?
Every question is written against the published AQA GCSE Chemistry specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real AQA paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from AQA.
How is Metallic bonding and properties of metals typically tested on AQA GCSE Chemistry papers?
Metallic bonding and properties of metals appears across multiple question types on real AQA GCSE Chemistry papers — most commonly as multiple-choice questions in the objective section, structured short-answer questions in the main paper, and occasionally as part of an extended response. Kramizo's practice bank reflects that mix: 4-option MCQs, true/false statements, fill-in-the-blank key terms, multi-select questions, and ordering questions. Working through the bank gives you exposure to every question style examiners actually use.
