Explain How Electric Current Is Able To Flow?

Electric current is described as moving from the positive to the negative end of the circuit. Electrons are able to flow in conductors, usually metals, because in metallic bonding the outer electrons of the metal atoms flow freely around between atoms.Jan 15, 2016

How does electrical current flow?

The direction of an electric current is by convention the direction in which a positive charge would move. Thus, the current in the external circuit is directed away from the positive terminal and toward the negative terminal of the battery. Electrons would actually move through the wires in the opposite direction.
