A material through which an electric current flows easily is called an electrical conductor. Many metals, especially silver and copper, are excellent electrical conductors.

Materials that allow the charges of an electric current to move freely through them are called what?
A materiel that allows an electric charge to pass through it is an conducter (copper, for example)
What material can electricity pass through?
As unsatisfying as I'm sure you'll find this, that depends on your definition of "electricity." If you mean electricity in the most conventional sense of an electrical current, electricity can move through any medium in which charge carrying quantons (protons, elecrtons, etc) can move at least somewhat freely.
Why does metal conduct electricity?
metal conducts electricity because it allows electrons to move freely as well as it has free electrons, unlike insulators(non-metals) which do not have free electrons. When the electrons are allowed to move freely in a substance, it is a good conductor and allows electric charge to flow.
Charges can not move freely through?
Insulators.
What is a science conductor?
A conductor is an object (usually a solid) that allows heat or electricity to pass through it easily by the process of conduction, which is a method of heat/electricity transfer in which heat/electricity travels through a solid material without actually causing movement of the medium. Copper, aluminium, and pretty much all metals are good conductors. Water is a conductor of electricity but an insulator of heat. An insulator is the opposite of a conductor, and absorbs heat/electricity rather than channeling it. Plastic is an insulator of both heat and electricity. Wood, styrofoam and vacuum (dead air, like in space) are also heat insulators.

What type of material allows electrons to move freely?
Electrons move freely in a solid, as in a metal
What is the material which allows electrons to freely pass from one atom to another?
A Conductor :)
Definition of freely permeable membrane?
freely permiable membrane allows everything to pass through.
What do you call a material that electrons will flow through freely?
conductor
How does transparent materials differ from translucent?
transparent material allows light to pass through freely and translucent materials such as frosted glass or a lampshadow, most ligth rays gets through, but are scattered in all directions but translucent material, like the candleholder does not allow objects to seen distinctly
What is surrounded by cartilage discs and allows air to freely flow through it to the bronchus?
Trachea
What name do you give to materials that let eletricity pass through them easily And why?
The material is conductive. Metals (copper or aluminum, etc) allows charged particles of electrons to move freely in either direction along their length.
Why does fluorine have a valency of 1?
the simple molecular structure allows higher concentration of electron to pass through freely
Where can phospholipids move and allow water?
freely and allow water and other hydrophylic molecules to pass through into or out of the cell.
What allows some molecules to pass through freely while limiting passage of other molecules?
That is a semi-permeable membrane.
What materials allow electricity to flow freely?
Because of freely moving of electrons in the material
