Materials which offer maximum resistance and do not allow current to flow through them are called?
Adi S.
Insulators are materials that do not conduct electricity; conductors are substances that allow electricity to flow through them easily. Rank the following in order of increasing band gap: semiconductor, insulator, and conductor.
Materials in which electrons move freely are called conductors, whereas materials in which electrons are stuck in place are called insulators. Is it possible to electrically charge both kinds of material? Explain and provide one example for each.
