    AnnotationA simple model allowing the description and the visualization of the bonding in solids in terms of classical chemical concepts of bond order and valence was proposed. The model is based on the straightforward generalization of the Wiberg indices, which are known to mimic the pattern of bonding interactions in ordinary isolated molecules, to infinite periodical structures. The picture of bonding based on the applications of this model to idealized 1D, 2D and 3D lattices is remarkably reminiscent of the model proposed a long time ago by Pauling to describe the nature of the metallic bonding. It implies that in addition to small fraction of valence electrons involved in the covalent bonding with the nearest neighbors, the majority have the character of “mobile” electrons, which are responsible for the build-up of metallic properties in the studied solids. Dedicated to 65th anniversary of professor K.Jug.
