Answer:
Metals have loosely bound outer electrons that is they have charge carriers which can move easily (current) when a potential difference is applied. Therefore, these loosely bound outer electrons make metals good conductors.

Explanation:
Metals placed on the left side of the periodic table tend to loose valance electrons to for stable nearest Inert gas configuration.
these free electrons are generated/released if current passes thru the metal.
these Electrons are the charge carriers
