A conductor is a substance in which electrons can move freely from one atom to another.
An insulator is a substance in which electrons cannot move from one atom to another.
Common Conductors and Insulators
| Good Conductors | Fair Conductors | Good Insulators (Non-conductors) |
| Silver | Carbon | Oil |
| Copper | Human body | Fur |
| Gold | Moist human skin | Silk |
| Aluminum | Acid solutions | Wool |
| Magnesium | Salt water | Rubber |
| Tungsten | Earth | Porcelain, glass |
| Nickel | Water vapour (in air) | Plastic |
| Mercury | Wood | |
| Platinum | Paper | |
| iron | Wax | |
| ebonite |
very insightful
ok
Sooo helpful with homework
Nice thank you
Please tell me an insulator example.
Diamond
Rubber is really effective because it can cancel the electrons flow
We know bro
Yes or no
is yarn a conductor or an insulator
INSULATOR
is fabric cork and car keys an insulator or a conductor?
Is Wool is a conductive material? which means it readily gives away its electrons.
Thank you so much; But most of the examples of conductors are metals.
Are metals are the best conductors? If any other examples of conductors?
Metals are considered the best conductors, but diamond is a good heat conductor as well, but it is also an electrical insulator.
I need help with this question
Is a hat a conductor 🤔
Depends on the material, but it is most often an insulator, not a conductor
is cotton a conductor or insulator? (Cotton Balls).
insulator 🙂
can you add more semi conductor’s because they are the most confusing but otherwise GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks a lot! Best educational site ever! <3
Thank you….༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ
amazing helped me with homework would recommend to any one 🙂
Thanks helped in my homework
Thanks
Thank you so much I had a test!
I need more but it’s good
Helped me
Helped me im school thanks
Conductors are all the metals like aluminium ,copper etc….and insulators are the materials which can’t conduct electricity like rubber ,silk,paper
This was helpful, but how about listing not good insulators?
almost the same as a conductor
thank you for hep in the science fair
pretty good
awesome
This helped me so much!
Very helpful and helped me complete my homework!
helped me with my math home work but make list longer I still have to fill in more insulators and conductors
LOVE the site
