Objects that conduct electricity poorly are called poor conductors of electricity or insulators . There is a difference though. Poor conductors of electricity are capable of conduction under certain circumstances while insulators cannot conduct electricity under any condition, example ; air is a poor conductor of electricity as it cannot conduct under normal conditions but lightning is able to pass through it during a storm.

Chalk, which is calcium carbonate, does not conduct electricity. This is due to the electrons being held tightly by the ions, which means they are not free to travel and conduct electricity.
all metals conduct electricity but alumiun doesn't conduct it as well as others all metals conduct electricity but alumiun doesn't conduct it as well as others
humans conduct electricity because your body is made 70% of water. so its the best conductor.
yes
Only extremely poorly.
Rubber objects do not conduct electricity, neither do they let electricity travel through them.
Yes, Pencil Lead does conduct Electricity. Copper, Gold and Silver though are the best conductors.
A hair dryer
Is the rate or capacity that objects have to conduct electricity
Yes, all three objects (penny, spoon, nail) can conduct electricity since they are made of metal, which is a good conductor. However, the size and shape of the objects may affect how efficiently they conduct electricity.

Ammonia is a gas. Gases do conduct electricity, as all materials do. However, they conduct electricity so poorly that we consider them insulators. "Electricity" requires the movement of electrons. In a gas, these electrons are too dispersed to provided any measurable current. So it does conduct electricity and heat, however conducts them both very poorly ;')
Metals which have free valence electrons conduct electricity and heat. thus they are good conductors.

Any solid metal plus liquid mercury in their elemental form.
many "objects" conduct electricity. It is a matter of which "objects" or metals are more conductive than others. The metals range from Silver to Aluminum(weak conductor). Silver is a very good conductor but expensive, so people turn to copper.
