The metal-nonmetal transition in liquid alloys such as Cs 1-x Au x and Li 1-x Pb x is explained as resulting from concentration dependent electron charge transfer causing short-range atomic order and a change from metallic to ionic bonds. Numerical results for the electronic density of states, the electron charge transfer, the free energy of mixing, the volume change, the electrical conductivity and the thermoelectric power are given.
