CONDUCTORS AND INSULATORS

Materials can be classified based on their ability to conduct electricity. Conductors, such as metals, gases, and certain liquids, allow electric current to flow easily due to the free movement of electrons.

CONDUCTORS AND INSULATORS

RESISTANCE

the material's opposition to the passage of electric current through it.
HIGH RESISTANCE
LOW RESISTANCE

ELECTRICAL CABLES

AN INSULATING MATERIAL
A CONDUCTING MATERIAL

There are two types of material

CONDUCTORS
When electricity moves easily through a meterial, this is called conductor

Good conductors are

GASES

LIQUIDS

METALS

COPPER

INSULATORS
Electrons are not free to move around. They remain attached to their atoms.

Good insulators are

PLASTIC

RUBBER

GLASS
