Question
Chapter 26, Problem 26.80QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The electrical conductance of copper metal decreases with temperature, but that of a
Concept introduction:
Electrical conductivity of metals:
- Electrical conductivity of metal is nothing but the moment of electrically charged particles or electrons.
- In metals, the atoms are characterized in the presence of valence electrons.
- The mobility of these valence electrons form one end to another end in a metal will generates electricity. This is called electrical conductivity in metals.
Metals:
- A metal is a material in the form of an element, compound, or in the form of alloy and which is basically hard when it is in solid state.
- Metals are good conductors and shows electrical conductiviy and thermal conductivity.
- Due to electron delocalization in conduction band metals shows electrical property.
- Metals have wide range of applications in industries and our daily life.
