Oh, dude, radium totally conducts electricity! It's like a rockstar in the world of elements, just passing those electrons around like it's no big deal. So yeah, if you need a radioactive element that can also help with your circuits, radium's your guy. Just don't go licking it or anything, that's not gonna end well.

LaoHi Radishes like all vegetables contain a lot of water and minerals. A typical scenario for conduction of electricity requires those two components to be present (absolutely pure water does not conduct electricity very well). It is the dissolved minerals that carry the charge to the positive and negative poles in a 'solution'. In solids it is the transfer from one atom to another that is the primary source of charge transfer to the poles. So in short, the answer is yes

On the periodic table of elementsis radium able to conduct electricity?
Yes, radium is able to conduct electricity because it is a metal. Metals generally have good electrical conductivity due to the presence of freely moving electrons in their atomic structure.
Is radon an conductor of heat?
The radioactive element radium is a pretty good conductor of thermal and electrical energy. We see radium at the bottom of the Group 2 elements, the Alkaline Earth Metals. It can conduct heat and electricity well.
Why is radium a good conductor?
Radium is not a good conductor. In fact, radium is a poor conductor of electricity due to its low thermal and electrical conductivity. Its chemical properties make it an insulator rather than a conductor of electricity.
Does rayon conduct electricity?
No, rayon does not conduct electricity as it is a non-conductive material.
Do detergents conduct electricity?
Detergents in general do not conduct electricity. However, some detergent solutions might be able to conduct electricity if they contain electrolytes or other conductive substances.
