The reason metals are good conductors is because they have a less electron affinity, or they just don't have a lot of them. The valance electrons they have are held loosely so it is easier for new electrons to push through, creating electricity.
Metals are good conductors of electricity, two of the best conductors are silver and copper.
all metals are good conductors of heat and electric currents
Metals behave in a rather unique way as far as their electrons are concerned.The electrons in metals are de-localised, which in effect means they are not bound to a particular atom, like a "sea of electrons".This property makes them good conductors of electricity because charged electrons can easily travel from one end of the metal to the other whilst maintaining that charge.
Non metals are poor conductors of heat and are not conductors of electricity , except for carbon , which is can conduct a little bit of electricity. Non metals are poor conductors of heat and are not conductors of electricity , except for carbon , which is can conduct a little bit of electricity.
Many metals are good conductors. While technically a fridge is one, that's probably not the answer you're looking for. Anything conducts heat, even humans. Believe it or not but diamonds are some of the best conductors out there.
Metals are good conductors. Some non-metals are good conductors, but many others are not.
the majoriy of metals are good conductors such as cooper and iron other metals such as gold are not
In general, metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.
metals are good conductors of electricity and heat!
True. Metals are good conductors of electricity because they have a high density of free electrons that can move easily in response to an electric field, allowing the flow of electric current.
metals are good conductors this means that energy can move throgh them better than say plastic or insulation
metals are good conductors of electricity
Metals are good conductors. Some non-metals are good conductors, but many others are not.
Good conductors contain many free electrons.
All metals are solids and good conductors apart from Mercury which is a liquid but is a good conductor.
using the energy band model, i would rank metals as good conductors. The energy gap in metals is negligible, that is the valence band and the conduction band overlap. Thus it is very easy for electrons in the valence band to move to the conduction band thereby conducting currents. Hence metals are good conductors.
No. Metals are good conductors of heat.
