Electricity
Electricity is the movement of electrons between atoms. Magnetism only exists around moving electrons.
Electricity has a great relationship with chemistry. Electricity is produced by moving electrons pulled from the elements studied in chemistry.
Metals are electrical conductors because they have free moving electrons.
There isn't. Thomas Jeffrson couldve Tod you that. Lightning is just a huge charge of electricity from charged up clouds (and the ground, too!)
Moving Electrons.
Moving electrons or other charged carriers is called electricity. The amount of electrical pressure pushing the electrons is called the voltage. The number of electrons moving past some point in a given time is called the current. Electrons are subatomic particles (smaller than atoms) called leptons.
Electricity
Static electricity is made up of electrons and protons that are not moving.
Electricity can flow due to the movement of ANY charged particle. A current in metals is due to the movement of electrons, and this is the most common case for a current. However, a current can also be carried by holes, by positive or negative ions, etc.
Most people say electrons (which are negatively charged). Some who are really out there might say it's a flow of holes moving the other direction.

In its most basic form (by its most basic definition), electricity is moving charges. Moving charges are matter, so electricity, which we normally consider to be moving electrons, is a moving matter stream. But it can also be looked at as a moving energy stream or as a wave, and this is a function of the physics associated with wave-particle duality. But you can consider a stream of moving electrons as matter because electrons are subatomic particles with mass.
Electrons moving, basically.
