What is the word for any substance that conducts electricity under certain conditions?
This material is an electrical conductor.
A substance that will conduct electricity only under certain condition is called what?
semiconductors! SEMICONDUCTORS it will do it in some condition
Objects that conduct electricity poorly are?
Objects that conduct electricity poorly are called poor conductors of electricity or insulators . There is a difference though. Poor conductors of electricity are capable of conduction under certain circumstances while insulators cannot conduct electricity under any condition, example ; air is a poor conductor of electricity as it cannot conduct under normal conditions but lightning is able to pass through it during a storm.
What has no definite shape volume and conducts electricity?
A substance that fits that description is a gas, such as hydrogen or oxygen. Gases have no definite shape or volume and can conduct electricity under certain conditions.
Is an atom only electrons that can be moved from place to place?
No. An atom consists of protons, neutrons and electrons.Electrons can, in certain circumstances, be moved or shared with other atoms. This is the basis of chemistry and electricity.
A substance that will conduct electricity only under certain conditions?
semiconductors: other materials which conduct only under certain conditions
Is the amount of substance in a certain volume the pressure?
No, the pressure is the force exerted by the substance on the walls of its container. The word that comes to mind for "amount of substance in a certain volume" is concentration, though it might also be a somewhat awkward way of describing density.The amount of substance in a certain volume is the density of the substance. Pressure means the force applied in a unit area. So the amount of substance in a certain volume is not the pressure.
Why are electrons affected by the addition of heat light or electricity?
Each of those has energy; so each of them MAY, under certain circumstances, knock an electron out of its orbit around the atom, or make it move around.
