Answer:
The particles of the insulator do not permit the free flow of electrons; subsequently charge is seldom distributed evenly across the surface of an insulator. While insulators are not useful for transferring charge, they do serve a critical role in electrostatic experiments and demonstrations.

Answer:
Explanation:
Charges in an insulator stay where they are initially placed, and therefore, cannot be moved.There will be more charge buildup on the sharper points of an irregularly shaped conductor.This makes insulators not be able to conduct any flow of charge.Charges that are the same will repel each other.
