Metals have low electronegativity, so they are conductive because they pass charges easily.

Two metals bonded together are going to be more conductive than a metal bonded with a nonmetal.

The bonds can shift because valence electrons are held loosely and move freely.

The correct response is:
The bonds can shift because valence electrons are held loosely and move freely.
This property allows electrons to move freely throughout the metallic structure, which facilitates the conduction of electricity and heat, a key characteristic of metals.
