Solution

The correct option is C Statement 1 is correct but statement 2 is incorrect
The particles in metal are held close to each other by strong metallic bonds. This allows free electrons to move across the metal freely, thus making it a good conductor of electricity.
Hence Statement 1 is correct but Statement 2 is incorrect
