Question
Chapter 6.1, Problem 3R
To determine
To contrast: between conductors and insulators.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Conductors are those materials which
Differences between conductors and insulators are as follows:
- Conductors allow electrons to move through them while insulators do not allow electrons to move through them.
- Atoms that make up conductors have electrons that move easily while atoms that make up insulators have tightly held electrons.
- Most metals are conductors while most plastics are insulators.
Conclusion:
Conductors and insulators have a wide range of use in our daily lives.
