Because metals are the good conductors of current. the conduction band and the valance band are overlap on each other,so when the current passes from the metal because of overlapping on both the bands current passes easily.

Is aluminum electrically conductive?
Yes...all metals are will conduct electricity.
What is a a electrically nonconductive material?
any material that will not allow electricity to pass through it. rubber, plastic, some electrically conductive materials are metals, esp. gold, water, neon gases insulators, glass, paper :)
Is Mercury least conductive?
No. Mercury is actually rather conductive, being a metal.
Can you use brass as a dialectric union between copper and black iron pipe?
No, brass cannot be used as a dielectric union between copper and black iron pipe. Dielectric unions are typically made of materials that are not electrically conductive, such as plastic or rubber. Brass is a conductive material and would not provide insulation against galvanic corrosion between copper and black iron pipe.
Is concrete conductive?
No.
What is conductive metals?
All metals are conductive. That is part of the definition of metals
What is the least thermally conductive material?
Lack of any media like vacuum
What are two differences between the properties of the material that has metallic bonds and the material that's has covalent bonds?
Metals are electrically and thermally conductive, generally they are hard, dense, with high melting and boiling points etc.
What do we call materials that let heat pass through easily?
They are described as thermally conductive.
If someone were talking about thermally conductive plastics what would they be referring to?
Thermally conductive plastics are plastics which heat up because they conduct heat due to their chemical composition. These types of plastics are available from the Premix Group, Masterbond and T Global Thermal.
What two classes of elements are conductive?
Metals and metalloids are conductive.
What are metals that are attracted to magnets?
they are called conductive metals
What do we call materials that let heat pass through them easily?
They are described as thermally conductive.
Is iorn conductive?
Iron (Fe) is electrically and thermally conductive.Iron is a metal element. It has free electrons. So it is a good conductor of heat and electricity.
How much more thermally conductive are copper pots and pans compared to aluminum or stainless steel?
Copper is amongst the most thermally conductive material on the market. In most cases, copper is too hot for most cooking purposes, which is why aluminum and stainless steel are more popular.
Is sodium chloride thermally conductive?
The thermal conductivity of sodium chloride is 6,5 W/m.K at 25 0C.
Are there any metals which do not act as a conductor?
All metals are electrically conductive.
