What is electricity?

Electricity is a form of energy. It can flow from one place to another place via a medium (metal). When electricity stored at a place then it's called static electricity and when flow from one place to another place it's called current electricity.

Actually it's a hoard of electrons. Each electron contains some amount of charge. So as big hoard of electrons as much electricity will be there.

Electrons can freely move from place of excess electrons to place of less electrons via a medium (metal) to balance the numbers of electrons.

By allowing electrons to move from one place to another place another type of energy can be created such as kinetic energy, heat energy etc.
