Metal

Real World Example

Imagine trying to pass a message down a long line of people, where each person efficiently hears and quickly relays the message to the next. This is similar to how metals, as elements, conduct heat and electricity effectively, where particles within the metal quickly transfer energy to their neighbors. Just as the message travels faster when each person listens well and speaks clearly, metals conduct heat and electricity efficiently because their particles are tightly packed and free to move, allowing energy to be rapidly transmitted throughout.
