Here's why:
* Conductors are materials that allow electrons to move freely through them. This is because the electrons in conductors are loosely bound to their atoms and can easily move from atom to atom.
* Insulators, on the other hand, have tightly bound electrons and resist the flow of electrons.
Some common examples of conductors include:
* Metals (copper, silver, gold)
* Electrolytes (solutions containing ions)
* Plasma (ionized gas)
