Conduction in non-metals:
Teaching Notes:
- before being heated, particles in the solid are vibrating about their fixed position.
- when heated, the thermal energy is converted to kinetic energy, causing particles to vibrate more vigorously about their fixed positions.
- they collide with neighbouring particles, transferring some of their kinetic energy to them

Teaching Notes:
- before being heated, atoms in the metal are vibrating about their fixed position
- delocalised electrons are able to move across the solid
- when heated, the thermal energy is converted to kinetic energy, causing particles to vibrate more vigorously about their fixed positions.
- metal atoms collide with neighbouring particles, transferring some of their kinetic energy to them
- delocalised electrons gain kinetic energy and move across the solid, colliding with other electrons and atoms in the process
- the collisions result in a transfer of kinetic energy
