➡️ copper is used for electrical wiring because it is a good conductor of electricity.
➡️ Metal particles are held together by strong metallic bonds, which is why they have high melting and boiling points.
➡️ The free electrons in metals can move through the metal, allowing metals to conduct electricity.
➡️ Metal atoms have outer electrons which are not tied to any one atom. These electrons can move freely within the structure of a metal when an electric current is applied. There are no such free electrons in covalent or ionic solids, so electrons can't flow through them they are non-conductors.
