Explanation:

since metals don't tightly hold on to electrons during metallic bonding, they are easily replaced. In metallic bonding, electrons are delocalized and move freely among nuclei. When a force is exerted n the metal, the nuclei shift, but the bonds do not break, giving metals their characteristic malleability.
