What is responsible for the good electrical conductivity of metals?
The metallic bonding which is basically a "sea" or cloud of electrons.
Do molecular compound has high electrical conductivity?
Some are, but not usually. They are typically insulators (exceptions are large polymers with conjugated bonding, but these are quite unique and not commonly found).
Compounds of unequal distribution of bonding electrons are said to be?

How can bonding determine the properties of a substance answer?
measurable you can measure it and observable you can see and observe it
What are the 2 types of bonding What is the difference between them?
Types of bonding: ionic (in salts), covalent (in organic compounds), metallic (in metals).
Which are some effects of metallic bonding?
Malleability, Ductile, Luster, Electrical Conductivity, and Thermal Conductivity.
Is responsible for the good electrical conductivity of metals?
The metallic bonding which is basically a "sea" or cloud of electrons.
Three properties of metals that are caused by metallic bonding?
Three properties of metals that are caused by metallic bonding are electrical conductivity, malleability, and ductility.
Which type of bonding is characteristic of a substance that has a high melting point and electrical conductivity only in the liquid phase?
ionic compund
Is there Exceptions for low conductivity in covalent bonding?
Yes. Graphite is covalently bonded but is moderately conductive, as are some poly-aromatic compounds.
Why conductivity of diamond is highest being a nonmetal?
It would help if you specify whether you are talking about thermal conductivity, or electrical conductivity. Diamond certainly doesn't has the highest electrical conductivity. Its thermal conductivity is one of the highest known, and - if a synthetic diamond is made from pure (99.9%) C-12, it is indeed the highest. The Wikipedia article attributes this to a strong covalent bonding.

Why are metals have high elctrical conductivity?
Metals have high electrical conductivity because they have alot of free mobile electrons. Metals have metallic bonding in which a sea of electrons is created. It is this sea of electrons that enables metals to conduct electricity so well.
What does ionic bonding form?
Ionic bonding forms compounds.
Properties of metallic bond?
The metallic bond is a delocalised bond with free electrons and also may include some covalent interaction This bonding is the cause of the luster, opacity, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, strength, malleability, ductility generally associated with the metals.
How is the position of electrons involved in metallic bonding different from the position of electrons that form ionic and covalent bonds?
the electrons involved in metallic bonding are delocalised - they are free to move which accounts for electrical conductivity. In ionic bonds the electrons are tightly bound to individual atoms. Generally covalent bonds have localised electrons, in pairs in individual bonds. However there are delocalised electrons in some situations - take graphite extensive pi bonds allow for delocalisation and electrical conductivity.
