Classical Mechanics Level 2

space is a vacuum that means there is no air, if to metal bars touch what will happen

they will bounce of each other they will spark and remove some of the metal they will obliterate each other they will fuse together

metals do not bond on earth due to the air molecules but in space there are no air molecules to stop the pair bonding

Metals are malleable and consist of a sea of valence electrons. So without the air molecules in their way, bringing the two metals near each other will cause them to attract violently. Instead of destroying one another, though, since metals are malleable, they'll just fuse together.
