Is leaf conductor or insulator?

A leaf is considered an insulator because it does not conduct electricity well. The moisture content and structure of a leaf prevent the flow of electrical current through it.


Why do metals giant covalent structures not conduct electricity?

Metals have a sea of delocalized electrons that can move freely throughout the structure, allowing them to conduct electricity. In contrast, giant covalent structures like diamond and silicon have electrons localized in strong covalent bonds, making them insulators and unable to conduct electricity.


Do ionically bonded materials conduct electricity?

Yes, ionically bonded materials conduct electricity when they are in a molten state or when they are dissolved in water. In these states, the ions are free to move and carry electric charge. But in their solid state, ionically bonded materials are generally insulators because the ions are locked in a fixed position and cannot conduct electricity.


Can colour pencils conduct current?

No, colored pencils typically cannot conduct current as they are made of graphite or other non-conductive materials. Conductive materials like metal are needed to allow electricity to flow through them.


What type of materials do not conduct as well as metals do?

Materials such as rubber, wood, plastic, and glass do not conduct electricity as well as metals do. These materials have high electrical resistance compared to metals, which allows for minimal to no flow of electric current through them.

What materials conduct heat and which do no?

the materials like metal(which have free electrons) conduct heat and light both and those materials which are formed by covalent bond (do not have free electrons) generaly non metals do not conduct heat and electricity.


What are the root like structures of a nerve that receive impulses and conduct them to the cell body?

The dendrites are the root-like structures of a nerve that receive electrical impulses The dendrites then conduct the impulse to the cell body. Dendrites are root-like structures of a nerve cell that receive impulses and conduct them to the cell body.
