ALL metals DO conduct electricity. The best conductors are gold, platinum, Mercury and copper. The poorest conductor is probably lead.
You can find their conductivity values from standard tables.
Also don't forget that electrical conductivity is not the same a thermal(heat) conductivity.

State the physical properties of metals?
Pure metals have high density and very high melting and boiling points. In addition, these metals are excellent conductors of heat and electricity.
Is it true that nonmetals are good conductors of heat and electricity?
Some nonmetallic materials are good conductors, graphite being an example. In this form, it is considered a semi-metal for that reason. Normally, however, nonmetals are not good electrical conductors.
Why are certain metals like copper silver and gold good conductors of electricity?
Most of the metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. Metals have large pool of electrons which when given even slightest amount of energy, can be localized and hence conduct electricity. It is the surface electrons on metals that perform the motion and therefore give them ability to conduct heat and electricity.
Is insulation a property of metal?
No. metals are good conductors of both heat and electricity. Insulation is a property of non metals.
What are the major characteristics or metals?
good conductors, metallic luster, and shininess
How many different metals are conductors?
All metals are conductors of electricity and heat.
Are metals conductors or insulators?
In general, metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.
What are the all metals?
metals are good conductors of electricity
Good conductors of heat and electricity?
Most metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.
Metals are conductors of heat and electricity?
Yes, but some metals are better conductors than others.
What distinguishes nonmetals from metals?
metals are shiny and good conductors of heat and electricity. Nonmetals are dull and poor conductors of heat and electricity.
Is true Metals are not good conductors of electricity. An electrolyte solution conducts electricity. Wood is a good conductor of electricity. Nonmetals are good conductors of electricity.?
1. Metals are good conductors of electricity.2.An electrolyte solution conducts electricity.3. Wood and nonmetals are not good conductors of electricity.
Are the metal good or bad conductors of electricity?
All metals are pretty good conductors of electricity.
What are metals good for?
metals are good conductors of electricity and heat!
Metals that are good conductors?
Copper is one of the best conductors for electricity.
Are non-metals good conductors of electricity?
No, they are not good conductors of electricity. Graphite is an exception as despite being a non-metal it conducts electricity. Only metals are good conductors of heat as well as electricity.
Which substance are usually good conductors of heat and electricity?
Metals are usually good conductors of heat and electricity.
