Question
Metals are good conductors of electric current because
electric fields are stronger in metals than in nonmetallic materials.
metallic atoms are in general less massive than other atoms.
metals have a net negative charge.
metals possess a large number of freely moving conduction electrons.

Explanation / Answer
here,
yes the metals are the good conductors of electric current
because
the meatals posses a large number of freely moving conduction electron
the electrons are free to move in a network of metal atom.
So because of the "Sea of Electrons", these electrons do not belong to just one atom but move freely about the metal's network which makes them great conductors of electricity.
