Metal, nonmetals are extremely poor conductors. Think copper wires.

When a metal reacts with a nonmetal are the substances good conductors of electric current?
The product of a metal reacting with a nonmetal is a salt; in solid form these do not conduct electricity well, but dissolved in water they do.
Which substance conducts electricity in both molten and solid states?
Ag (silver) because it is a metal and metals conduct electricity no matter in solid or liquid phase.
Is oxygen a metal metalloid or a nonmetal?
Oxygen is nonmetal because since oxygen isn't visable it's not solid so oxygen is nonmetal.
Solid solution of a metalor a nonmetal dissolved in a metal?
Alloy?
Does aluminum conduct electricity in a dissolved state?
No, aluminum is definitely in a solid state when it conducts electricity.
Is conducting electricity in solid state a metal?
Usually a solid conductor is a metal but there are exceptions. For example graphite is nonmetallic but it conducts electricity.
Is a silver solid that conducts electricity but is not magnetic metal?
Silver is a very conductive metal but it is diamagnetic.
How are nonmetal different from metals?
solid nonmetal is solid and metal is just metal
What is a arch of electricity?
an arch of electricity is when a solid that conducts power comes too close to a metal that is electrified and gets electricuted.

Which substance conducts electricity in both molten and solid states?
Ag (silver) because it is a metal and metals conduct electricity no matter in solid or liquid phase.
Which combination of elements results in the formation of a white crystalline solid that dissolves to form a solution that conducts electricity?
a metal and non-metal
Is silver a solid metal or a nonmetal?
It is a metal
What are three clues that tell you if something is a metal?
it is shiny, conducts electricity and are solid at room temperature (except mercury).
Is sodium a nonmetal or a metal or a solid or a liquid?
Sodium is a solid metal.
What solid conducts electricity but isn't metal?
Interesting question. I suppose that Sodium Chloride is a solid substance in it's normal state, as mined in many parts of the world.(common table salt) Mercury is considered to be a metal, and conducts electricity extremely well. Perhaps that is what you were wondering. Perhaps you think it is NOT a metal. I think sodium conducts electricity and is used in Sodium Vapor lights which you often see in city streets. These are just my thoughts . See what others have to say.
How are solid nonmetals different from metals?
Metals are good conductors of electricity and heat; nonmetals usually aren't. Also, metals tend to have a shiny surface.
