What are conductors, insulators, and semiconductors?

Question

Accepted Answer

Conductor, insulator and semiconductor are materials that conduct electricity in different ways.

Conductors allow electricity to flow through them easily, such as copper and aluminum wires.
Insulators do not allow electricity to flow through them easily, such as rubber and plastic.
Semiconductors have properties of both conductors and insulators, such as silicon and germanium.
The conductivity of a material can be measured by its resistance to the flow of electricity.
Conductivity can also be affected by temperature, impurities, and other factors.

Accepted Answer

Conductor: The element which can conduct electricity, like steel, water etc.
Semi-conductor: The element which come it the range between the insulator and conductor. eg: silicon.
Insulator: which cannot conduct electricity

Accepted Answer

#Conductor

A substance is said to be conductors if conductivity is more than insulator and semiconductor

:- And resistivity is approximately zero

#Semiconductor:-

A substance is said to be semiconductor if conductivity is lie between the conductor and insulator

:- resistivity is lie between the conductor and insulator

#Insulator

A substance is said to be insulator if conductivity is approximately zero

:- resistivity is more

Accepted Answer

Conductor easy to flow electricity such as copper and aluminium, insulator not to flow electricity in a rubber and plastic semiconductor is property of conductor & insulator by silicon germanium

Accepted Answer

Easily flow current , heating and sound

Accepted Answer

Conductors display high conductivity, which means they allow energy, such as electricity, heat or sound, to easily flow through them. Whereas semiconductors allow a moderate flow and insulators exhibit low conductivity
