Electrons cannot easily move through a type of material called electrical insulators. These materials tend to be plastics or rubber. Just think of the coating on wires in your home for example

What are materials that allow electrons to move through them easily?
A conductor. Most metals are conductors-they enable electrons to move freely through them, carrying an electrical charge. Most non-metals (notably excluding graphite, an isotope of carbon) are insulators which means that they do not allow an electrical charge to be carried through them.
Is the reactivity of a metal depend on how easily it loses its valence electrons?
yes it does. if the electrons are lost easily, reactivity is more.
Is ebonite a conductor?
Ebonite is a poor conductor of electricity, it is an insulator. Electrons cannot move easily within it, but can it form and hold a static charge.
What type of bond is NO3?
A Chemical bond that cannot be separated easily through physical means
How do the valence electron of mercury make it bonding weaks?
Mercury easily shares its valence electrons
What kind of electrons cant move through easily?
The answer 2 this ? is that it is the insulator because the definition is that an insulator is something that cannot move through that well.
Materials through which electrons cannot move easily?
insulators
Something electrons move through easily?
Insolator
Something that allows electrons to flow easily through it is called?
A conductor
What is something electrons move easily through?
wires or tinfoil, or metal
What do Electrons do not easily flow through?
A Resistor
Allows electrons to move through it easily?
A conductor
What does an electric conductor?
It permits electrons to flow through it easily.
What do electrons move easily through?
conductors like metals
Something that allows electrons to flow easily through it is called what?
iron or water...almost any metal..i hear that iron is the best though
Electrons do not move easily through?
If an electric current doesn't pass easily through a substance, such a substance is said to be an INSULATOR.
Heat flows easily on what material?
Heat moves easily through materials with delocalised electrons, that is electrons which are free to move through the substance. This happens in metals and graphite.
