Electricity can travel through conductive materials such as metal wires, water (although it is unsafe), and the human body. It follows the path of least resistance to complete the circuit and flow from a power source to a load or device.

It needs what is commonly known as a "path of least resistance".


Why Electricity doesn't travel through solid sodium chloride but travel through solution?

Solid sodium chloride is not a conductor, However, neither is pure water. When you dissolve anything in water, it creates a path for electricity to flow through it.


How many pathways exits for electricity travel on in a series circuit?

In a series circuit, there is only one path for electricity to travel along the circuit from the power source through each component connected in series back to the power source.


Does electricity travel outside electric powerlines?

Electricity generally travels through conductive materials, such as wires in electric power lines, to reach its destination. It cannot travel freely outside of these materials without a complete circuit. If there is a path of lesser resistance outside the power lines, the electricity may arc or jump to that path, which can be dangerous and result in power outages or accidents.

How is electron transport similar to electricity?

Electron transport is electricity. Electricity is the flowing of electrons along a substrate such as copper. Electrons will move from one source to another source. In household electricity the electrons travel along the path and back to the original source.
