Every material conducts electricity, some materials are just better than others. The best conducter of electricity is silver, but silver is very expensive. Because of this, copper is used as it is a very good conductor of electricity but it is cheap.
Wrong. Water will pass through paper but low voltage electrity will not. Electricity will pass through copper and other metals, but water will not. Water is a good conductor of electricity but so is steel and copper. However water will not pass through them unless they are in the form of tubing In the UK pipework (Gas and Water) in properties should be earthed to protect against electrocution.
The resistivity of copper at 75 degrees Celsius is approximately 1.68 x 10^-8 ohm-meters. Resistivity is a material property that quantifies how strongly a given material opposes the flow of electric current. In the case of copper, its low resistivity makes it an excellent conductor of electricity, which is why it is commonly used in electrical wiring and other applications where high conductivity is desired.
Materials that allow electricity to pass through are said to be good conductors. Conductors have free electrons allow for the flow of charged particles through the material resulting in an electric charge. Most metals are considered to be good conductors, some examples include copper, aluminum, silver, and gold.
