Which term best describes the material's ability to conduct electricity?

• A. Electrical conductivity
• B. Conductivity
• C. Tensile strength
• D. Durability

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is a material’s ability to allow electric current to pass through it. The precise term for that property is electrical conductivity. It describes how easily electrons move when an electric field is applied, with high values indicating good conductors like copper and low values indicating insulators like plastic. The other terms refer to different ideas: tensile strength is about how much pulling force the material can withstand before breaking, and durability is about how well it resists wear and environmental damage. So for describing how well electricity flows through a material, electrical conductivity is the exact, most specific fit.
