Which substance can not conduct electricity?

One substance that cannot conduct electricity is nonmetals in solid state, such as plastic and rubber, as they have very few free electrons available to carry an electric current.


What are 4 possible properties of a substance classified as a metalloid?

Metalloids, which have properties of both metals and nonmetals. Some metalloids, but not all, conduct heat or electric current.


Are nonmetals poor conductors of heat and electric current?

Yes.


Why compounds formed from non metals normally do not conduct electricity?

Compounds formed from nonmetals do not conduct electricity because nonmetals typically do not have free-moving electrons that can carry an electric current. In these compounds, the electrons are held tightly by the atoms, preventing them from moving freely to conduct electricity.

Which of the following is a property of nonmetals poor conductors of electric current very reactive with water malleable shiny?

Many - but not all - are poor conductors of electric current.


What are all the conductors of an electric current?

Common conductors of electric current include metals such as copper, aluminum, and silver. Other materials like graphite and electrolytes can also conduct electricity. Superconductors are materials that exhibit zero electrical resistance at very low temperatures.


How do electrons help graphite conduct electricity?

In graphite, electrons are delocalized and free to move throughout the material, allowing them to easily carry an electric current. When a voltage is applied, these mobile electrons can flow from atom to atom, making graphite a good conductor of electricity.
