Question

why covalent bond and ionic bonding is not possible in metals?...
​

Answer 1

Answer:

please mark me branlist because I need to go genius rank

Explanation:

This is due to the low ionization energies of the metals. It's easier for them to release few electrons from the outer shell to obtain a noble gas configuration rather than consuming several ones. However, the difference between an ionic and a polar covalent bond is always fringe.

Again, it's not true that metals don't form covalent bonds at all. I guess you never heard of quadruple bond or δ-bond. There are several examples such as K2[Re2Cl8]⋅2H2O and Chromium(II) acetate hydrate.
