Electricity i.e. a battery, can be made by taking two different metals (maybe that's where your confusion came in) - for example, copper and zinc, and submerging them into a an acid solution (like vinegar).
Or you can take those same to metals and stick them into a lemon.
If you put a volt meter on the two different metals you will measure a small, but noticeable, current.
But to answer your queston, you will not make electricity by rubbing two pieces of metal together.
What else can I help you with?
Are alloys conductors of heat and electricity?
Yes, most alloys are good conductors of heat and electricity. This is because alloys are made by mixing different metals together, which creates a structure that allows the flow of heat and electric charge more easily compared to pure metals.
Human needs for mining minerals?
If it was not grown, it was mined. Metals and minerals come from mining. The computer you are using to read this was made with minerals and metals from mining. The wire that carries electricity to your house came from mining (much of the electricity came from mining too).
What Canadian coin conducts electricity?
The Canadian Toonie coin, which is a two-dollar coin, is made of two different metals - an outer ring of nickel and the inner core of aluminum-bronze. The aluminum-bronze core allows the coin to conduct electricity.
Is a highlighter a good conductor of electricity?
No, a highlighter is not a good conductor of electricity. Highlighters are typically made with non-conductive materials such as plastic and ink, which do not allow the flow of electrical current. Conductors of electricity, on the other hand, are materials that allow the flow of electrons, such as metals like copper or aluminum. Therefore, using a highlighter to conduct electricity would not be effective.
What are metals made of?
metals like iron, copper, gold, silver and such cannot be broken down to simpler molecules. They are they're own molecules. If you mean what is their makeup, they're "made" of atoms. Most metals used by industries and people in general are compounds of different elements, which change (obviously) the composion of the metal, for different uses.
Are alloys conductors of heat and electricity?
Yes, most alloys are good conductors of heat and electricity. This is because alloys are made by mixing different metals together, which creates a structure that allows the flow of heat and electric charge more easily compared to pure metals.
Human needs for mining minerals?

How do you distinguish a metallic and a non metallic by using 5 properties?
metals are shinier than some of thenon metals. metals are excellent conducters of heat and electricity. metals can bear alot of strain without breaking. metals can be made into thin wires. metals can be mae into thin shapes.
What are wires made from?
Wires are made form many differant types of copper and othe metals. Why is this it is because electricity is atracted to metals
Are coins good or poor conductors of electricity?
Coins are made of metal and metals are good conductors of electricity.
How do you make eletricity from fruit and vegetables?
Fruit can produce electricity by puting an anode and a cathode in them preferably made from different metals join them to a wire and you will have a current.
Why are pans made from different metals?
because different metals are better and worse heat conducters
How electricity made by pencils?
Electricity is not made by pencils: Electricity can pass through pencils since they are made using graphite which is a good conductor.
What component is constructed using a metal strip made of two different metals that will separate when current flow is excessive?
a circuit breaker
Why switches are made of plastic or bakelite and not metals?
Switches are made of plastic or bakelite because they don't conduct electricity.
What is the link between minerals and metals?
The link is that metals are made from different minerals.
Is electricity made of fossil fuels?
No. Some electricity is made by using fossil fuels. There's a difference.
