Question

guided practice
which property of metal does not specifically contribute to its suitability for electrical wiring?
a. it insulates well.
b. it is ductile.
c. it is malleable.
d. it is a conductor.

Explanation:

Metals are good conductors (critical for electrical wiring to carry current), ductile (can be drawn into thin wires for wiring), and malleable (can be shaped, useful for fittings). Insulating well is a property of non-metals, which would hinder electrical flow, so it does not contribute to metal's suitability for electrical wiring.

Answer:

A. It insulates well.
