Answer:

Metallic Bonding

Explanation:

Conductivity occurs when electrons or ions are free moving. The conductivity in metals is due to electrons being delocalized in a sea of electrons. Metals contain metallic bonding which allows the electrons to freely move.

Malleability happens when adjacent layers of positive ions move relative to one another while being in contact with the sea of electrons from the metallic bonding.
