Answer to Question 1

E

Answer to Question 2

From the atomic point of view, the electrons in an insulating material are bound very tightly to the nuclei. In a good conductor, on the other hand, some of the electrons are bound very loosely and can move about freely within the material and are often referred to as free electrons.
