The molecular structure of the solids has lower ability to conduct electricity due to tight holding by nucleus.
<h3>Why molecular solids are poor conductors?</h3>
Molecular solids are also poor conductors of electricity because their valence electrons are tightly held by the nuclear charges present in the nucleus while on the other hand, Metals are good electrical conductors in the solid form due to the presence of free electrons that helps in the conduction of electricity.
