im pretty sure that oxygen is a poor conducter of electricty because it is a gas and a nonmetal and i think it is a brittle solid at room temperature but im not sure.....hope i helped :)

Of the elements oxygen zinc and iodine which one is likely to be poor conductor of electricity and a brittle solid at room temperature?
Oxygen and iodine are not conductive.
How is classified a solid element that is malleable a good conductor of electricity and reacts with oxygen?
This is a metal.
Does oxygen conduct electricity?
oxygen does not conduct electricity because it is a gas that we breath in and a gas that we cannot see so it cannot conduct electricity.
Why is sulphuric acid used in electrolysis of water?
Water breaks down to form hydrogen and oxygen when electricity is passed through it. Water is a bad conductor of electricity, so it is mixed with sulphuric acid or caustic soda to make it a good conductor of electricity.
Is oxygen soft?
NO,it is brittle
Of the elements oxygen zinc and iodine which one is likely to be poor conductor of electricity and a brittle solid at room temperature?
Oxygen and iodine are not conductive.
Is oxygen a good conductor of electricity?
No, oxygen is not a conductor of electricity because its in the air.
Is oxygen a poor conductor of electricity?
Oxygen is a poor conductor of electricity and also heat. It is known to support combustion but its state does not allow it to conduct electricity.
Is oxygen a brittle solid at room temperature?
No. Oxygen is gaseous at room temperature.
Is oxygen a insulator for a conductor of electricity?
Insulator.
Is liquid oxygen a conductor?
No, solid oxygen cannot conduct electricity due to the fact it is a covalent molecular bond.
How is classified a solid element that is malleable a good conductor of electricity and reacts with oxygen?
This is a metal.
What is an element that is brittle and a poor conductor?
Nonmetals are elements that are brittle and dull.
Does oxygen conduct electricity?
oxygen does not conduct electricity because it is a gas that we breath in and a gas that we cannot see so it cannot conduct electricity.
What is a better conductor of electricity then copper?
A: Silver actually but not too desirable because it has the tendency to tarnish with oxygen
Why is sulphuric acid used in electrolysis of water?
Water breaks down to form hydrogen and oxygen when electricity is passed through it. Water is a bad conductor of electricity, so it is mixed with sulphuric acid or caustic soda to make it a good conductor of electricity.
What are non metals?
They are non mental substances such as Oxygen, Mercury, Xenon, and others. They are poor conductors of heat and electricity, not lustorous (shiny), and are brittle. This description is in general, there are exceptions.
