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, not all metals are good conductors. Some metals, such as copper and aluminum, are excellent conductors of electricity and heat due to their large numbers of free electrons. Other metals, like lead and stainless steel, are poor conductors because their electrons are not as free to move.
Good conductors of heat, such as metals like copper and aluminum, have high thermal conductivity due to their free electrons that can easily transfer heat energy. Bad conductors, or insulators, like wood or rubber, have low thermal conductivity as they lack free electrons and impede the flow of heat energy. The molecular structure of good conductors allows for efficient heat transfer through collisions between free electrons and atoms, while bad conductors have a structure that inhibits the flow of heat energy.
Good conductors are called materials that allow electric current to flow through them easily due to the mobility of their electrons. Some examples of good conductors include metals like copper, silver, and gold.

In general, metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.
metals are good conductors of electricity and heat!
metals are good conductors of electricity
Metals are good conductors. Some non-metals are good conductors, but many others are not.
All metals are solids and good conductors apart from Mercury which is a liquid but is a good conductor.
Scientifically speaking, metals aren't bad conductors. Only nonmetals are poor conductors and metalloids have the possibility of being a poor conductor.
