Conductors of Heat and electricity (week 2)

• Conductors are materials that allow heat and electricity to flow through them.
• Insulators are materials that does not allow heat and electricity to pass through them.
• Metal are good conductors of heat and electricity
• Non-metal do not have free electrons that is why they are not as good as metal when it comes to conductors of heat and electricity
• Good conductors that have atoms that are very compact
• The more compact the atoms the better conductors it will be.
• Good conductors are shiny
• Poor conductors are brittle
