Question

Metallic conduction is based on motion of which particle in material?

• A. Electron
• B. Proton
• C. Neutron
• D. None of these

Hint:

Free electrons in metals are responsible for electrical conductivity.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Metallic conduction occurs due to the movement of free electrons within a metal lattice. These electrons move under the influence of an electric field, allowing conduction of electricity. Thus, the correct answer is \( \mathbf{(A) \text{Electron}} \).
