Electricity is electrons flowing through an object---any object. The structure of metals makes it easier for electrons to flow. Also, electricity flows at very fast speed. However the electrons do not flow the same speed. Otherwise, when you turn on your light switch, an electron at the Power Station 10 miles away would zip into your house and to your light. Think of it as a long 100 foot tube(the wire) filled with ping pong balls. You start by pushing a ball into one end of the tube and a ball falls out the other end. The balls didn't travel at 100 feet; but the energy did.

What is the group of elements called that do not conduct electricity?
The group of elements that do not conduct electricity are generally called non metals.
Are most metal elements brittle and don't conduct electricity?
No, it would be a nonmetal. Metals are usually malleable and do conduct electricity well.
Is the element element conduct eletricity?
only metal elements conduct electricity, and they do it very well
What is it about their atomic structure that enables elements to conduct electricity?
the atomic number of beryllium
What are elements that do not conduct electricity called?
These elements are called noncoductors.
What are elements that conduct electricity classified as?
These elements are metals.
What is the group of elements called that do not conduct electricity?
The group of elements that do not conduct electricity are generally called non metals.
Which tipe of elements conduct electricity the best?
I would say that salt water would conduct electricity best.
What are the group of elements called that can conduct electricity?
Conductors
What elements usually have the ability to be stretched bent and conduct electricity?
The metal elements.
What is a science fair project name for what materials conduct electricity?
The conduct of electricity
Are most metal elements brittle and don't conduct electricity?
No, it would be a nonmetal. Metals are usually malleable and do conduct electricity well.
Which elements don't conduct electricity?
there is no element that can't conduct electricity, only elements that do it well and others that don't do it so well. Rubber is a very poor conductor of electricity, while copper, silver and gold are very good conductors.
Is the element element conduct eletricity?
only metal elements conduct electricity, and they do it very well
What are nonmetals?
Non-metals are dull, brittle elements that do not conduct electricity.
Explain why do copper and iron conduct electricity?
Well metal elements are usually the best conductors of electricity
Which elements of the periodic table are metals and nonmetals?
metals elements conduct electricity better than nonmetals elements but not as well as metalloid elements
