What is the difference between electrical conductor and insulator?
Wiki User
∙ 9y ago
Insulator is a material that doesn’t allow electrons (electricity) to move easily, so charges don’t flow. Ex: Plastic, Rubber, Glass, Porcelain.
Conductor is a material that is good at transmitting energy (electricity) because it’s made of a material through which electrons can move easily. Ex: Gold, Copper, Iron, and most other metals.

The difference between a good conductor and a good insulator?
A good insulator means a bad conductor. It is the opposite of good conductor.
What is the difference between a insualator and a conductor?
Conductor will carry current/insulator won't.
What is the difference between conductor and insulater?
A conductor can conduct heat and electricity, but an insulator can't.
What material has resistance between a conductor and a insulator?
The resistance between a conductor and an insulator is: Wood, fabric, and water!
What is the difference between insulator and bad conductor and semi conductor?
an insulator doesn't allows electricity pass from it, a bad conductor allows electricity to pass from it but not fully or completely and a semi conductor pass electricity in little form which used to operate electronics

What is the difference between conductor and insulater?
A conductor can conduct heat and electricity, but an insulator can't.
What are the examples of insulator and conductor?
The difference between a conductor and an insulator is that a conductor allows electrons to travel. This is because the "outer electrons" of a conductor are not anchored like those of an insulator. Conductors tend to be metals. Some examples of insulators are plastic, glass, rubber and wood.

What is the difference between an insulator and a good conductor of heat?
Insulator is a substance that does not allow heat to pass through it example air. conductor is a substance that allows heat to pass through it example metal.
What does semiconducter mean?
A semiconductor is a type of conductor whose conductibility is between a conductor and an insulator. They are typically used as parts of items like electrical circuits.
What is the difference between a conductor and a insulater?
a conductor attracts and an insulator keeps it all together
Differentiate in between conductor and semiconductor and insulators using band diagram?
Conductor-one which conducts(allow current)electric city in all condition. Semiconductor-One which behaves like conductor as well as insulator depending on condition. Insulator-one which donot conduct(allow current)electric city in all condition
What is the difference between a conductor and an insulator in terms of electrons?
Electrons are part of an atom, in elements etc. Electrodes are types of medical equipment places on certain parts of your body, that send electrical pulses to your muscles to stimulate them.
What is definition of semiconductor conductor and insulator?
semiconductor is intermediate between conductor and non conductor of electricity
