Polarization of the core electrons by the valence electron is important in alkali metal atoms. With only one valence electron, gold boasts only one conduction channel, whereas lead atoms--in bulk only a tenth as conductive as gold--allow three channels. The metal's atoms (smallest units of an element) bind with carbon's four valence electrons (electrons in an atom's outer shell) to make a fuel ingredient. |
