Conductors are materials that permit electrons to flow freely from particle to particle. If we’re looking at common conductors, these generally include:
1. Metals such as copper, aluminum, gold, and silver.
2. The human body, because of its electrolyte-rich water.
3. Earth, since it can conduct electric charges over large distances.
4. Graphite, a form of carbon, which is used in pencil leads but also conducts electricity.
5. Saltwater, as the ions in saltwater carry charges and enable it to conduct electricity.
Please note, the list above is not exhaustive but represents some classic examples of conductors encountered in everyday life and various industrial or technological applications.
Answer: c
Explanation: Normally, metals are said to be good conductors. Here mercury is the only metal (which is in liquid form). The other options are insulators.
