3. Sulfur molecule - 25In each oxygen molecule how many atoms does it contain?Two oxygen atoms
- 26What are crystal lattices?They are large grid-like structures that repeat the similar arrangement of atoms over an over.
- 27What percentage of elements are metals?80% Metal elements
- 28What is special about metal lattices?The atoms in metal lattices can move across one another, which allows them t be bent, hammed and drawn into wires.
