The term for free electrons in metals transferring energy by colliding with other atoms or electrons is?

The term is "electron conduction," where free electrons in metals transfer energy by colliding with other atoms or electrons. This process is crucial for the flow of electric current in conductive materials.


The term for free electrons in metals transferring energy by colliding with other atoms or electrons?

The term is "electron diffusion." In metals, free electrons can transfer energy through collisions with other atoms or electrons, leading to a net movement of charge known as electron diffusion.


Why electron freely in a metal?

The term conductor is generally applied to a substance or material that has a lot of free electrons in it. The name conductor is applied because the free electrons are already there. A material does not have free electrons because it is a conductor, but is a conductor because it has a lot of free electrons. That said, let's look at what's going on. These free electrons have energies that permit them to "wander" through the conductor; they're not "locked into" the structure of the material. And when a voltage (potential difference) is applied, current flows through the conductor because the free electrons are moving. They're made to move by the applied voltage. If we take the case of a wire in a circuit, the wire is a conductor. This wire, say a copper one, has many free electrons in it, and when we apply a voltage, electrons move. The voltage forces electrons into one end of the wire, and the free electrons "shift over" and electrons emerge from the other end of the wire. This movement of free electrons in response to an applied voltage through an conductor is the essence of current flow in that conductor.


What term describes the loss of electrons that can create free radicals that destroy chemical bonds?

Oxidative stress is a term that describes the loss of electrons that can create free radicals. Free radicals are molecules with unpaired electrons that can damage cells by reacting with other molecules, leading to a chain reaction that destroys chemical bonds in the process.

What is the term for a solid object that allows free electrons ot move easily through it?

The term for a solid object that allows free electrons to move easily through it is a "conductor." Conductors have a high electrical conductivity due to the presence of mobile electrons that can flow in response to an electric field. Metals such as copper and aluminum are common examples of good conductors.


What condition necessary for a material to be term as good conductor?

It must have large number of free electrons for electrical conduction.


What are 'free electrons' and where do they originate?

Free electrons is a term often used in the description of metal bonding. Free electrons have a transient existence in cathode ray tubes (TVs before LCD and plasma screens came out). See the link for an explanation of how these work
