Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
Metals have free-held loose electrons because they form metallic bonds with one another, resulting in a sea of electrons. Metals have a low resistance to electricity and high electrical conductivity.
Metals conduct electric lustre because they are made up of a lattice of atoms with free electrons. A current can flow through the free electrons. When a negative charge is applied to one end, the electrons are repelled by the charge and move to the opposite end.
