2 answers:

7 0

The reason nonmetals are electrical insulator is since valence shells in nonmetal atoms are almost full, the atoms attract electrons and hold them tightly to fill their valence. The reason why it acts as an insulator is the high ionization energy it has. It prevents any electron from leaving an atom easily even when an electric field is applied.
