Yes it is... the only reason it is not used as much as it would be is because it is more expensive than copper, steel, and aluminum.

Is a n ickle a conductor?

No, nickel is not a good conductor of electricity. While nickel is a metal, it has higher resistivity compared to other metals like copper or silver, making it a poor conductor of electricity.


What is a metal a good conductor of?

heat and electricity.


Why is metal not a good insulator of electricity?

Metal is not a good insulator of electricity because its electrons are free to move around, making it a good conductor of electricity instead. When a voltage is applied to a metal, these free electrons can easily flow through the material, creating an electric current. This ability to conduct electricity makes metals unsuitable for use as insulators in electrical applications.

Is chromium a good conductor or poor conductor?

All metals conduct electricity to some extent. Chromium isn't an especially good conductor, but it does conduct.. so we can say that it is a poor conductor.


Metal is a good?

Conductor of heat and electricity.


Why is silver a good conductor of eletricity?

Silver is a good conductor of electricity because its delocalized electrons are free to move; keeping their metallic bonds intact. The movement of mobile electrons around positive metallic cations explains why Silver is a good conductor of electricity. In other words you can respond by saying Silver is a metal, but I'm sure your chemistry teacher wouldn't give credit to that answer.
