Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
There are two types of material on the basis of the conductivity of the electric current. One is conductors that allow the electric current to pass through themselves, and the 2nd one is insulators that do not allow the current to pass through themselves. For example, electric current can not pass through the air. Hence is considered a bad conductor of electricity, or we can say the air is an insulator.
The correct statement would be that air does not conduct electricity.
