2.19 identify common materials which are electrical conductors or insulators, including metals and plastics

Materials that are electrical conductors conduct charge easily (basically, a current can flow through them), they are usually metals (although not always). Examples include copper and silver

Electrical insulators do not conduct charge well at all (basically, a current can't flow). Examples include plastic and rubber.
