Best Answer

Sulfur has relatively high electronegativity and is also a poor conductor of electricity at room temperature. Fluorine has the highest electronegativity and copper is a good conductor of electricity.

non-metal elements

because refer to the properties of nonmetal, they are poor conductor of electricity and has a relatively high electronegativity.

ex, sulfur

Is glass a poor conductor?

It depends on whether you mean heat conductor or electrical conductor; in either case it is a poor conductor at room temperature; but at very high temperature it is a good electrical conductor but still a poor heat conductor


Why is sulfur a poor conductor of electricity?

Its a poor conductor because it has a tetrahedral lattice. Meaning that each one of its electrons are being used in bonding. Unlike other metals with 'sea's of free electrons' that can be used to conduct electricity, sulphur is an insulator. Furthermore, you will find that it is a gas at room temperature, which of course effects it conductivity. Keep in mind that it also has a high electronegativity and therefore the compounds that it forms are polar! :)
