Why does metal conduct electricity?
metal conducts electricity because it allows electrons to move freely as well as it has free electrons, unlike insulators(non-metals) which do not have free electrons. When the electrons are allowed to move freely in a substance, it is a good conductor and allows electric charge to flow.
