what are two propeties of metals that makes them useful in electrical wiring?
i know one would be it is a good conducter of electricity, but what would the other be, and how would metallic bonding between coppet atoms account for each of the propeties?
Answer:
It is also malleable and ductile.
As you said, metals in general conduct electricity well. But another important factor is that metals are also malleable and ductile. Brittle substances such as general non-metals won't make good wiring would it? =)
