Conductors conduct electricity because most of them are made of metals and metals are good conductors of electricity while insulators are made of rubber and rubber does not conduct electricity.
To conduct electricity, the atoms that make up the material, have to have free electrons that can pass a charge on. Metals have these free electrons, whereas insulators do not.
Insulators have tightly bound electrons and do not conduct electricity well, while conductors have loosely bound electrons that can move freely and conduct electricity effectively.
Conductors conduct heat and electricity well because they have delocalised electrons in their structure. Insulators, on the other hand, do not have delocalised electrons and therefore do not conduct heat and electricity as a conductor, although they do conduct to some extent.
Conductors are materials that allow the flow of electricity through them easily because of the presence of free-moving electrons, such as metals. Insulators, on the other hand, are materials that do not easily allow the flow of electricity, preventing the movement of electrons, such as rubber or plastic. Conductors are used to transmit electricity, while insulators are used to protect against electric shock or to insulate against heat.
Plates can be both conductors and insulators depending on their material. For example, metal plates are conductors because they allow electricity to flow through them, while ceramic or glass plates are insulators because they do not conduct electricity.
No, not all conductors of electricity are magnets. While some conductors like iron, nickel, and cobalt can become magnets when exposed to a magnetic field, many other conductors such as copper, aluminum, and silver do not exhibit magnetic properties.

Glass and rubber are not good conductors of electricity.
Conductors is a thing where an electricity can flow freely while the Insulators is a thing where electricity is not allowed to flow freely.

by charge transport and transfer ........they are substances whose aqueous solution are conductors of electricity..electrolytes are good electrical conductors while non electrolytes do not conduct electricity ..........
Strong electrolytes completely dissociate into ions in solution and are good conductors of electricity, while weak electrolytes only partially dissociate and are poor conductors of electricity.

Objects that conduct electricity poorly are called poor conductors of electricity or insulators . There is a difference though. Poor conductors of electricity are capable of conduction under certain circumstances while insulators cannot conduct electricity under any condition, example ; air is a poor conductor of electricity as it cannot conduct under normal conditions but lightning is able to pass through it during a storm.
Electrolytic conductors conduct electricity through the movement of ions in a solution, while metallic conductors conduct electricity through the movement of electrons in a solid material. Electrolytic conductors are typically liquids or solutions, while metallic conductors are solid materials with freely moving electrons.
Yes. US nickels are made of copper and nickel, while Canadian nickels are made of plated steel, all of which are good conductors of electricity.
