Name the materials that are conductors of electricity and also those which are insulators

Posted by Alan Johnson 7 years ago

CBSE > Class 06 > Science (OLD)

1 answers

Yogita Ingle 7 years ago

Examples of Conductors

Silver is the best conductor of electricity. However, it is costly and so, we don’t use silver in industries and transmission of electricity.
Copper, Brass, Steel, Gold, and Aluminium are good conductors of electricity. We use them mostly in electric circuits and systems in form of wires.
Mercury is an excellent liquid conductor that finds use in many instruments.
Gases are not good conductors of electricity as the particles of matter are quite far away and thus, they are unable to conduct electrons.

Examples of Insulators

Glass is the best insulator as it has the highest resistivity.
Plastic is a good insulator and it finds its use in making a number of things.
Rubber is a common component in making tyres, fire-resistant clothes and slippers. This is because it is a very good insulator.
