RELATION BETWEEN ATOMIC BONDING
AND ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY
Electrical energy is carried from one position in a material to
another
rate of carrying = electrical conductivity
Conductivity depends on:
mobility of carriers i.e. type of carrier ….
electrons or ions
Metals:
formable because:
- non directional bonds
- no ‘charge’ constraints
