they are good conductors of heat.
they are good conductors of heat. you can look at metallic bonding, the metal ions are present in a sea olocalizeded electrons. metal usually has high densities, hence they are closely packed. that makes heat transfer by conduction more efficient. Conduction is the transfer of heat energy by vibration of molecules to transfer energy to one end to the other end. Metals also have the sea of electrons to help them in this conduction. electrons are very small compared to the metal ions such that they can easily pass through the spaces between them and help to transfer heat energy along. so you only need to supply a relatively small amount of energy to heat metals up.
Specific Heat Capacity Of Metals
Metal atoms in pure metal are very close together and are able to transfer heat easily via conduction from one atom exciting the other atoms next to it. So the amount of energy it takes to heat a metal is relatively small to that of water for example. Non-metals have crystal structures generally farther apart and thus don't transfer energy as efficiently.
