⟩ What is the difference between Free Electron Theory and Band Theory of solids?

Free Electron Theory:

This theory tells that, metals conduct electricity because of the presence of free electrons in it. The outermost shells of metal atoms will be loosely bound with their nucleus. So the electrons in it are free to move anywhere in the solid. These electrons are called free electrons and they are responsible for the conduction of electricity.
