Generally speaking, materials that are good conductors of heat are good conductors of electricity. But there is a notable exception. Diamond, an allotrope of carbon, conducts heat better than any metal, but it is an electrical insulator.
Most metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.
Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.
it is simply Newtons 2nd law, by the stating of protons and electrons being equal
Static electricity is a build up of electrons. Static means still or stationary. Electrons on metal can not be stationary as the metal is such a good conductor of electricity. To remove static electricity after dragging your feet on a nylon carpet just touch a metal appliance or pipe eg a tap. Wood is generally porous so electrons again do not build up but ebony will build a static charge as it is a very dense wood. Electrons build up on plastic as it is a poor conductor. The electrons are static and a charge builds. Static electricity is caused by electrons being knocked off or building up on objects that are not normally good conductors.
Static charges are accumulated generally on insulators.
Sorta ... static electricity always develops on insulated things : either non-conductors or isolated conductors.
1. Metals are good conductors of electricity.2.An electrolyte solution conducts electricity.3. Wood and nonmetals are not good conductors of electricity.

Glass and rubber are not good conductors of electricity.
Most metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.
All metals are pretty good conductors of electricity.
Metals are usually good conductors of heat and electricity.
Coins are made of metal and metals are good conductors of electricity.
Ionic has good conductors of electricity
No, they are not good conductors of electricity. Graphite is an exception as despite being a non-metal it conducts electricity. Only metals are good conductors of heat as well as electricity.
They aren't necessarily good conductors of both (like diamond, which is a good conductor of heat, but not electricity) Graphite is one that is both, but most of them are metals.
