For a material to conduct electricity, it must have free movable electric charges, such as free electrons or free ions, in order to 'carry' electricity. In the case of metals, there is a 'sea' of delocalized electrons. These free electrons can 'carry' the electricity, and thus, it is a conductor.
What else can I help you with?
Is metal a good electrical conductor?
Metals are indeed good conductors. Silver, which is a metal, is the best conductor.
What is the only non metal that is a good electrical conductor?
Carbon in the form of graphite is used as an electrical conductor (the brushes in electric motors)
If the temperature of a metal conductor increases the electrical resistance of the conductor usually?
increases
Is ferous metal good conductor of electrical?
A *ferrous* metal is a good conductor, but not as good as copper, silver or aluminum.
Is steel an electrical conductor?
yes,steel is a metal and all metals are good conductors of electricity no you are wrong their not every metal is a good conductor yes every metal is a conductor but not all are good conductor.
Is iodine an electrical conductor?
Iodine, either in its solid state or dissolved in alcohol, is not a conductor of electricity.
Is foil an electrical conductor?
Yes, foil is an electrical conductor because it is made of metal, which is a good conductor of electricity. It can be used to create electrical connections or shield electronic components from interference.
An element that is a non-metal but conductor of electricity?
Silicon or Germanium Graphite is an excellent electrical conductor
Does plutonium is a conductor?
The electrical resistivity of plutonium is 150.108 ohm.m; plutonium, as a metal, is a conductor but not good.

Gold (Ag)
The only non metal that is a good electrical conductor?
