22. Electrical conductivity and conductor resistance
Electrical conductivity is the measure of a material's ability to allow the transport of an electric charge.
Conductor resistance is a property of a conductor at a specific temperature, and it is defined as the amount of
opposition there is to the flow of electric current through a conducting medium.
Electrical conductivity and conductor resistivity are essentially the opposite of each other:
The more electrical conductivity a material has the less resistance it offers to current flow. The more
resistance the conductor has, the less conductive it is.
