Answer:
Explanation:
conductors- metals like copper , aluminium,silver, platinum, have large no. of free electrons and possess small resistivity which increases with temperature.
as they provide low resistivity they conduct electricity smoothly.
insulators- they have practically no free electrons an possess high resistivity which decreases with risse in temperature. as they have high resistivity , so they do not conduct electricity easily. for example- glass , porcelain, mica etc..
