Answer:
As electrons move through the conductor, some collide with atoms, other electrons, or impurities in the metal. It is these collisions that cause resistance. The molecular makeup of a substance determines the number of collisions, or amount of resistance, to electron flow.

Answer:
Resistance refers to the property of a substance that impedes the flow of electric current. Some substances resist current flow more than others. If a substance offers very high resistance to current flow it is called an insulator. If its resistance to current flow is very low, it is called a conductor. Resistivity refers to the ability of substances to resist current flow. Good conductors have low resistivity and insulators have high resistivity.
