The 3rd possible event, Metallic bond, does not depend on deltaEN because all the atoms have low coulombic force (since they are metals) on their valence electrons, so valence electrons can easily be removed from atom to create a "sea of free flowing valence electrons".
Watch the following You Tube video for notes on Metallic bond.
( [Weiner7000 Metallic Bonding and Metallic Properties You Tube Video]).
In the video, they do not talk about ductility (ability to draw into smaller diameter wire) but it is the same reasoning as malleable.

When atoms get close enough to interact with each other, there are 3 possible events:
1) They share their valence electrons (ve-) - called covalent bonds (only true "Chemical bond")
2) One atom loses ve- and the other one gains ve- (atoms form ions) - called "Ionic bond"
3) All atoms lose their ve- and the ve- create a "sea of free flowing ve-" or sometimes called "delocalize ve-. We call this a metallic Bond (or simply a metal).
All three events are ruled by the Rule of Eight..

"Covalent bond - ΔEN < 1.7
The Covalent bond will be discussed in class.
"Ionic bonds" are placed in quotes because this is a misnomer. A bond by definition is a Chemical bond which means that the ve- are being shared. This is not true for Ionic bonds.
Take notes on or print out the following Powerpoint Presentation that explain "Ionic bonds" in more detailed.

The 3rd possible event, Metallic bond, does not depend on ΔEN because all the atoms have low coulombic force (since they are metals) on their valence electrons, so valence electrons can easily be removed from atom to create a "sea of free flowing valence electrons".
