By definition, a solid metal, including liquid Mercury, in its elemental form should conduct electricity. Under what condition a metal cannot conduct electricity? Normally when a metal is oxidized, the result is highly resistive, but then the oxide film (such as rust) is no longer considered metallic.
Some metals, such as sodium, don't normally exist in its elemental form in nature. If these metals are somehow kept out of trouble (air), they too should conduct electricity.

What are the two things metal can conduct?
All metals conduct electricity.All metals conduct electricity.All metals conduct electricity.All metals conduct electricity.
Which metals do not 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
What are elements that conduct electricity classified as?
These elements are metals.
What elements are nonconducting?
if you mean the conduction of electricity then.... all non-metals do not conduct(excluding carbon which does conduct) all metals conduct although some conduct better than others
Can anythang besides metal conduct electricity?
All wires conduct electricity, since wire is always made of metal, and all metals are conductors. Copper is preferred though, as it has the highest electrical conductivity rating of all non-precious metals. It is also very ductile when annealed, so can be drawn into wire of anything down to sub-millimetre diameters. Other metals are used for other properties. Aluminum wire has a higher conductivity to weight ratio and lower cost, for instance.
What are the characteristics of the lanthanides?
They are silvery metals that conduct electricity.

What metal can't conduct electricity?

Which can conduct electricity metals or non-metals?
Metals can conduct electricity because they have free electrons that can move easily between atoms, allowing electricity to flow. Non-metals, on the other hand, generally do not conduct electricity well because they do not have free electrons available for conduction.
Will metals conduct electricity in liquid form?
Yes, metals will conduct electricity in liquid form because of the free electrons.
What characteristic of a metal allows it to conduct electricity?
The physical properties of different metals make them useful for different purposes in metals can move through the metal, allowing metals to conduct electricity.
What are three things metals can do?
Metals can conduct electricity, are malleable (can be hammered into thin sheets), and have a shiny appearance (luster).
Why do metals conduct electricity?
Metals conduct electricity because they have free-moving electrons that can carry electric current through the material.
What do metals do more easier then non metals?
conduct electricity
Which metals conduct electricity when in solid?
Zinc and other metals
What conducts electrisity?
metals conduct electricity.
