What is an element that doesn't conduct electricity as well as a metal but does conduct electricity better than a nonmetal called?
(not possitive, about this, but since I last checked my periodic table there were only 3 types of elements, so this makes sence.)
A metaloid
Carbon in graphite form is used for resistors. Carbon in diamond form has much the same property but is so expensive they are not used for this application.
Certain crystal structures of Boron have interesting conductivities.

Do kids conduct electricity better than adults?
No, kids do not conduct electricity better than adults. The ability to conduct electricity depends on the properties of the materials involved, such as water content or metal content, rather than age. Both kids and adults can conduct electricity depending on the circumstances.
How would you describe the ability of most metalloids to conduct heat and electricity?
Most metalloids have intermediate conductivity properties, meaning they are not as good conductors of heat and electricity as metals, but better than nonmetals. This is due to their partial metal and nonmetal characteristics, which allow for some electron mobility within their structure.
What is the connection between a metalloid and semiconductor?
The connection between a metalloid and a semiconductor is that metalloids are used in electronics as semiconductors. A semiconductor doesn't conduct electricity as well as a metal, but does conduct electricity better than a nonmetal.
Which Metal Doesn't Conduct Electricity?
think allof them do, just some of them are better conductors (like silver and copper), and some are worse.
Which element is a semi-conductor of electricity?
Most conductors conduct both heat and electricity well. A semiconductor is a conductor whose resistance is between that of a conductor and an insulator. An example of a semiconductor is silicon which is used in electronic appliances
The black form of this nonmetal conducts electricity better when light is shined upon it and it is used in Xerox toner?
Selenium is the nonmetal that conducts electricity in its black form when light shines on it. But selenium is not a component of Xerox toner. Selenium is used in the older photoreceptor drums and belts that serve as the equivalent of film in a camera.
Is nickel a better electrical conductor than gold?
At room temperature, gold will conduct electricity better than almost any other element other than silver.
Elemets that conduct heat and electricity well?
Metals, although some conduct heat & electricity better than others.

What element shows moderate electrical conductivity?
Silicon is an element that exhibits moderate electrical conductivity. While silicon is generally known as a semiconductor, it can conduct electricity better than nonmetals such as insulators, but not as effectively as metals.
Why do fruits conduct electricity better than vegetables?
More electrolytes.
Do different things conduct electricity better than others?
yes!
Will titanuim conduct electricity?
Yes, although there are better conductors of electricity, titanium is still a good conductor.
