Question

distinguish a conductor from an insulator

Answer 1

conductor helps the current to pass through it whereas insulator does not..........

CONDUCTOR: those objects which can pass electricity through them is known as conductors. the conductors can pass electricity through them due to free electrons present in them. for example: iron, copper, aluminium etc.

INSULATOR: those objects which can not pass electricity through them is called insulator. the insulators can't pass electricity due to less or absence of free electrons. for example paper, wood, rubber etc

Answer 2

$hey \: mate \\ here \: is \: ur \: ans \\ \\ conductors \: are \: those \: from \: which \: electricity \: pass \: easly \\ \\ \\ example \: \: silver \: \: iron \: \: aluminium \\ \\ \\ \\ insulators \: are \: from \: which \: electricity \: not \: pass \: easily \: here \: full \: of \: resistance \: is \: there \\ \\ example \: plastic \: \: wood \\ \\ \\ \\ hope \: it \: helps \: u \:$
