such substances are conductors of electricity.
Fes is unaffected by magnets because it is made of non-ferromagnetic materials that are not attracted to magnets. Ferromagnetic materials, like iron, are the ones that are most strongly affected by magnetic fields.
Ionization. In the issue an ion (cation) is generated.
to be able to conduct electricity the substance needs availably free electrons, in lattices every electron is occupied in making bonds in the lattice...hence there are no free electrons, thus it does not conduct electricity or heat with a few exceptions like graphite :) hope this info helps -melody <3
Metals have few valence electrons and tend to lose these electrons to form positive ions. This electron loss allows metals to achieve a stable electron configuration similar to the nearest noble gas, leading to the formation of positive ions.
halogen NOTE added by Dr.J.): A halogen doesn't have a few valence electrons. They have 7 valence electrons.
The nature of materials affects resistance because different materials have varying numbers of free electrons, which are responsible for conducting electricity. Materials with more free electrons, like metals, have lower resistance since electrons can flow more easily through them. Conversely, insulating materials have high resistance because they have very few free electrons available for conducting electricity.
A 2p orbital does not determine whether a material is a conductor or insulator. Conductivity is determined by the number of free electrons that can move through a material. Materials with many free electrons are typically conductors, while materials with few free electrons are insulators.
Insulators are materials through which electrons have the most difficulty flowing. This is because insulators have very few free electrons that are able to move through the material. Materials like rubber, plastic, and wood are good examples of insulators.
A non-magnetic matieral is one where there are no (or very few) free electrons to conduct the electro-magnetic field. One basic example is plastic.
Materials that are better conductors of electricity typically have more free electrons that are able to move easily through the material when a voltage is applied. Metals are good conductors because they have many free electrons in their outer energy levels. In comparison, insulators have few free electrons and do not conduct electricity well.
There are a few things that a shared pair of electrons can be called. Many people call these electrons bonded.

The ones that are called conductors, such as copper, and aluminum have many free electrons . free electrons are free to move from one atom to another , they are not closely tied to their nucleus. this flow is called electron drift, in other words current flow. As in a battery where the positive terminal has few electrons, and the negative has millions of electrons. attach a copper wire across them , and you have electron drift (current flow. solid materials such as rubber, plastic or porcelain or any non - metallic material are known as Insulators. They have no free electrons, thus no electron drift (current flow). an example of an insulator are rubber spacers, to make sure the motor cannot be grounded to the steel frame.
insulator. Examples include rubber, glass, and plastic.
Insulators are poor conductors because they have very few free electrons that can carry an electric charge. This limits their ability to conduct electricity compared to materials with more free electrons, like metals. Insulators also have high resistance to the flow of electric current, further inhibiting their ability to conduct electricity.
Fes is unaffected by magnets because it is made of non-ferromagnetic materials that are not attracted to magnets. Ferromagnetic materials, like iron, are the ones that are most strongly affected by magnetic fields.
There are very few non metallic materials that are magnetic or para-magnetic (attracted to magnets). The primary reason is that the outer electrons need to all spin or be able to spinn in the same direction. Only metals have appropriate electrons. That is why they are called metals.
