The atoms which have fewer electronic shells have, the lower the electrical conductivity it has.

Explanation:

The less electronic shells an atom has, the stronger the intermolecular forces. This means that these atoms are more reluctant to share/transfer electrons and do not conduct electricity very well or are insulators.This link is for a website I used to aid me in my answer
