Description: The room-temperature electrical resistivity of materials and substances is one of the most widely varying of all physical properties, encompassing 28 orders of magnitude difference between metals and non-metals. At the absolute zero of temperature, non-metals do not conduct, while metals do (excluding here the phenomenon of superconductivity).
