The ability to conduct electricity is a property of a conductor.
Among the elements, nonmetals are generally the least like others in their ability to conduct heat and electricity. Unlike metals, which are good conductors due to the presence of free-moving electrons, nonmetals typically lack this property and are poor conductors. For example, while metals like copper and aluminum conduct electricity well, nonmetals such as sulfur and phosphorus do not. This fundamental difference sets nonmetals apart from the conductive behavior of metals.
no
Metalloids have an intermediate ability to conduct heat and electricity, falling between metals and nonmetals. They have some metallic properties, such as being able to conduct electricity to some extent, but not as effectively as pure metals. Their ability to conduct heat and electricity can vary depending on the specific metalloid.

yes
Metals generally are good conductors of electricity, and nonmetals are not.
The ability to conduct electricity in the solid state is not a common property of ionic compounds, as they typically only conduct electricity when molten or in solution.
nonmetals
Nitrogen and oxygen are nonmetals. Metals are typically characterized by their ability to conduct electricity, while nonmetals are typically poor conductors of electricity. Nitrogen and oxygen do not exhibit metallic properties such as conductivity.
Nonmetals such as sulfur, phosphorus, and iodine are unable to conduct electricity because they lack free-moving electrons in their atomic structure. This results in these nonmetals being poor conductors of electricity.
