Does an iron nail conduct electricity?
Yes they do, they have approximately .3 volts of conductivity.

What causes metal to conduct electricity?
The free electrons within the metal cause metal to conduct electricity because they drift easily with an applied electric force. All metal conducts electricity.
Does graphite conduct heat and how?
All substances conduct heat to some degree as the heat is transmitted between atom via their vibration in solids. In electrically conductive materials such as metals and graphite, there are delocalised electrons which can pass from atom to atom freely. This is how charged is transmitted to mediate electricity. These flowing electrons can also carry heat and pass it more quickly from atom to atom than through just vibration alone.
What is the difference between a conductor and a insulater?
a conductor attracts and an insulator keeps it all together
Which form of carbon will passes electricity?
Graphene, graphite, and some carbon nanotubes can all conduct electricity.
Can the graphite content in a pencil be used as a variable resistor?
Yes, you stupid bimbo. Lead AKA amorphous graphite can conduct electricity and all that good stuff.
Does pencil lead conduct electricity?
Pencil lead (aka graphite) DOES conduct electricity. It does this thanks to electron delocalization within the carbon layers. Since the valence electrons are free to move, they are able to conduct electricity.
What metal can't conduct electricity?
all metals can conduct electricity
Does money conduct electricity?
All metal coins conduct electricity. Some paper money can conduct electricity in parts of them.
Will electric currents flow through a pencil?
No a pencil is made of wood, graphite, and rubber, which are all insulators, however the aluminum part surrounding the eraser could conduct electricity
What is indium ability to conduct electricity?
indium can conduct electricity. all metals can.
What are the two things metal can conduct?
All metals conduct electricity.All metals conduct electricity.All metals conduct electricity.All metals conduct electricity.
Can Salicylic acid conduct electricity?
All acids conduct electricity except when they are dry
Why does graphite conduct electricity whereas diamond does not and they are both allotropes?
Diamond and Graphite have 2 different structures, Diamond has a rigid tetrahedral network whereas Graphite has layers which completely changes the properties of both types of carbon. Basically graphite has free delocalised electrons which means electricity can be conducted, diamond however does not have any delocalised electrons which means it cannot conduct electricity. Both diamond and graphite are made up of strong covalent bonds which means they both have high melting points. Graphite is soft though because the layers which it is made up of slide, this makes it soft. Diamond is made up of carbon atoms close to each other and in a 3 layered cube shape which is a lot more rigid and this makes it 'the hardest substance on earth'. Hope this helps, Obrien9
Why compound does not conduct electricity?
Any substance with free electrons (or free ions in aqueous solutions) can conduct electricity. It explains the fact that all metals conduct electricity well.
What are ALL the materials that can conduct electricity?
Anything metallic can conduct electricity. Also molten ionic compounds and solutions of ionic compounds. Aqueous acids also conduct electricity.
