if you know chemical bonding it is easier to understand but any substance that doestn contain charge carriers is a poor conductor of electricity i.e. a substance that doenst contain free moving electrons or ions to propagate the current
All Non-Metals are poor conductor of electricity.
nonmetals
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.
semiconductors
Poor conductors of heat are generally also poor conductors of electricity. These would include most gases, ceramics and man-made plastics. A vacuum will not conduct heat either.
All Non-Metals are poor conductor of electricity.
Alloys are a combination of two or more elements. Not all alloys are poor conductors, in fact many are used specifically as conductors.
nonmetals
most non ferrous materials are poor conductors with exceptions
anything that is not of metal or liquified
Yes.
Elements can be categorized into metals and nonmetals. Metals are typically shiny, malleable, and good conductors of electricity, while nonmetals are often dull in appearance, brittle, and poor conductors of electricity.
Coins are made of metal and metals are good conductors of electricity.
yes
They are insulators.
Copper (Cu) is a metal. Metals are elements that are typically shiny, malleable, and good conductors of heat and electricity. Non-metals, on the other hand, are elements that are generally not shiny, brittle, and poor conductors of heat and electricity.
Metals are elements that are shiny, good conductors of heat and electricity, malleable, and ductile. Nonmetals are elements that are poor conductors of heat and electricity and are brittle in solid form. Metalloids have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals and can exhibit characteristics of both.
