Air is quite a reasonable conductor of sound, of radio waves, and of radiant heat. It is not a good conductor of say, electricity, because of the lack of free electrons, which are needed for electrical conduction.
No, air is a poor conductor of electric charge. It is considered an insulator because it typically does not allow the flow of electric current easily. Lightning strikes occur when air breaks down and becomes a conductor in the form of a plasma.
Wool holds lot of air. As air is a bad conductor of heat, this makes the wool a bad conductor of heat, but a good insulator.
A sponge is a bad conductor of heat because it is made up of mostly air pockets trapped in its porous structure. Air is a poor conductor of heat compared to solid materials, which prevents heat from transferring efficiently through the sponge.
Air is typically considered to be a good insulator, meaning it does not conduct electricity well. However, if the air contains impurities or moisture, it can become a conductor, allowing electricity to flow through it.
To test that air is a bad conductor of electricity, you can set up a simple experiment by connecting a circuit with a battery, a light bulb, and two metal plates with a gap between them. When the gap is filled with air, the light bulb should not light up, showing that air does not conduct electricity well.

they have a very large amount of air present in them, plastic is a bad conductor

Air is not a conductor of electricity if it conducts electricity we cannot live. And if there is any ions present then only that can conducts electricity but air is a mixture of gases. So it is not a conductor. Lightning is proof that air is a conductor, however it is not a 'good' conductor it is about average. Air conductivity changes with moisture (humidity)and temperature level. The higher the moisture in the air, the higher its conductivity. Yes it is the water in the air that conducts generally, but the question was not "is oxygen / nitrogen / methane / etc" a good conductor. Our "Air" or "Atmosphere" is made up of a great number of components. "Paschen's Law" is what covers this question, and is pretty complex being "V=(a(pd))/(ln(pc)+b) - see link below).

Conductor
Candle is a bad conductor of heat and electricity.
Moist air is a very poor conductor of electricity. However, the presence of moisture can slightly increase the conductivity of air compared to dry air due to the dissolved ions in water. Overall, though, moist air is still considered to be a good insulator.
glass, ceramic,diamond, are somtricitytte of the conductor of hear but bad conductor of electricity meher n sethna
electricity! Because it is a non-metal
