  1. How do electrons move?

  2. I mean really do they move?

  3. I read that they move in circular shells AROUND THE NUCLEUS. How can they move in the conductor?

  4. I have read that there are valent electrons that jump! How can they jump?

  5. Why do we use "current means motion of POSITIVE IONS"?

  6. Ions are full atoms?

  7. Then what does actually move?

  8. And how?

I have tried to read many thing on google but they confuse me more.

This is the model of the atom that I think you will best understand. It is called the Bohr model of the atom. As you cans see, the valence electrons are at the very edge.

Metals conduct electricity so easily because their valence electrons are not tightly bound. To put it more simply, the outer electrons can move around freely, without being held back.
