    Conductors and Insulators of Electricity A major reason electricity works is because of conductors. First metal‚ water‚ tall trees and tall items are good conductors because lightning is attracted to them. These materials have many mobile electrons. Metal is an easy substance for lightning to travel through so metals are good conductors. However‚ rubber is a bad conductor because lightning bounces off of it. A bad conductor is called an insulator. An insulator has a few mobile electrons. It is

    Electricity is a form of energy. Electricity is the flow of electrons. All matter is made up of atoms‚ and an atom has a center‚ called a nucleus. The nucleus contains positively charged particles called protons and uncharged particles called neutrons. The nucleus of an atom is surrounded by negatively charged particles called electrons. The negative charge of an electron is equal to the positive charge of a proton‚ and the number of electrons in an atom is usually equal to the number of protons
