that is such a smartical question :) I guess it just does it :)
no explanation is needed ... the power of ZEN my friend..... o.o

What is different between electricity and electronic?
Electricity is the flow of electrons through a cable. Electronics is set of conductors and semi-conductors (again kind of cables) through which electrons flow in specific way, needed by the machine.
Is glass or metal a better conductor?
Glass has a higher conductivity than thin plastic but,it is still lower than metal so metal may be a better conductor
What are materials called that do not allow a easy pathway flow of electricity?
They are usually called semi-conductors.
Difference between a semiconductor and insulator?
The difference among Metal,Semiconductor and Insulator is written bellow-1.Metal:Substances through which electricity can pass easily is called Metal.1.Semiconductor:Substance which conductivity lies between Metal and Insulator are called Semiconductor.1.Insulator:Substances through which electricity can not pass easily are called Insulator.
What is extrinsic conductor?
Impure semi conductor material are called extrinsic semi conductor as there a small quantity of foreign particle is present. Two types of impurities are added to an extrinsic semi conductor. When impurities belonging to third group are called as trivalent or acceptor impurities such as boron, aluminum, indium or gallium when these impurities are added in pure semi conductors they form p-type semi conductor. And similarly when impurities belonging to group fifth called as penta valent or donor impurities such as arsenic, antimony, bismuth or phosphorus are added to a semi conductor they form N-type semi conductor .
What is the difference between an electronics and semi conductor?
Electronics refers to anything that requires electricity to run. A semi conductor is a material that has some properties of a conductor, meaning it allows electricity to flow through it well and some properties of an insulator, meaning it does not allow the flow of electricity through it well. Semi conductors are used extensivly in modern electronics and circuit boards. the queastion makes no sense - check what you are asking
Why can electricity only go through conductors?
Because that's how a conductor is defined. A conductor is something that conductors electricity or "lets it go through". An insulator is something that doesn't. A semi conductor is half way between and will allow some electricity to "go through".
How do semiconductor differ from conductor and insulators?
SemiConductor = Kind-of-conducts.Really! By applying electricity to the conducting material (usually in a transistor or Integrated chip) the conduction rate of the material changes. This allows you to change the flow of electricity through the semiconductor by using a second smaller control voltage.This is the basis of most electrical components.Conductors(made out of materials that are not semi-conductors) fully allow electricity to flow through it.Insulators (Non-Conductors)completely block the flow of electricity.
Does electricity pass through silicon?
silicon is a semi-conductor,there fore electricity can pass through it.transistors in electronic devices are made up of silicon
Why semi conductors are preferrd over conductors?
Conductors transport electrical energy easily. You can transfer the energy at the electrical pole to you light bulb without much loss from friction through a conductor like copper. Some semi-conductors are very interesting because they can be made to vary the flow of electricity through them. A small electrical signal can control the resistance of electricity through the semi-conductor. Thus a small signal can be made into a large signal, this is called amplification.
What is the difference between insulator and bad conductor and semi conductor?
an insulator doesn't allows electricity pass from it, a bad conductor allows electricity to pass from it but not fully or completely and a semi conductor pass electricity in little form which used to operate electronics
Is cotton wool a conductor of electricity or an insulator?
Cotton wool is not a conductor or an insulator it is a semi conductor. It is sort of in the middle, electrons can travel through cotton wool but not as good as silver, bronze, metal and so on.
What is different between electricity and electronic?
Electricity is the flow of electrons through a cable. Electronics is set of conductors and semi-conductors (again kind of cables) through which electrons flow in specific way, needed by the machine.
What are materials that allow charges to flow through then easily called?
electric conductor They are called conductors of electricity. Electricity is the flow of charge. Solid conductors contain free electrons that carry the charge. Liquid conductors contain ions that carry the charge.
In order to be considered a semi-conductor the material must?
easily accept electron flow.
Is sodium a semi conductor?
No, sodium (Na) is a conductor not a semi conductor
How can you increase the conductivity of a semi conductor?
The conductivity of a semi-conductor can be increased by raising the temperature of the semi-conductor .
