Best Answer

The most used conductors of electricity are aluminum, steel and copper. Other metals are used like gold and silver. Mercury is still used in switches. A lot of elements and compounds will carry electricity. Some better than others, some cheaper than others.

Does thermal energy have slow moving particle?

You are perhaps thinking of thermal conduction? Heat travels by conduction through a material by atoms of the material vibrating and passing this movement on through the material, it is also helped by free electrons which exist in good conductors like most metals.

Why is less resistance for a conductor wire good?

Resistance in a wire restricts the movement of the electrons through the wire. This restriction transfers some of the energy contained in the electrons into the material of the wire and as this energy accumulates in the material of the wire the wire starts to heat. Therefore, there the energy that is transferred into the wire material is considered wasted because it is not available as electrical energy, which means the consumer who is using that wire is charge for the electrical energy that is waste. It the resistance is less in that conductor the consumer will save money.
