In order for heat to be conducted, there have to be collisions between atoms or molecules, in which energy is transferred from a faster moving particle to a slower moving particle. In a vacuum there are no particles, hence, no particle collisions and no heat conduction.
No. If you can get it, vacuum is the best insulator.
A vacuum.
it depends what type of insulator youre talking about. wood is a good thermal insulator and rubber is a good electrical insulator A perfect vacuum is the best insulator.
A vacuum is the best insulator, and prevents conduction and convection. Radiation is still possible though.
Insulator because there are no particules to carry any kind of energy from one side to the other.

the thermos bottle's walls are double, with vacuum between. And vacuum is the best insulator we know.
mostly contain of all types of metal examples are coper , silver ,aluminum, and other types. you should not say gold is a good insulator it would be nice to have a gold insulator but you'd have to be very wealthy

Heat travels in 3 ways. Conduction, convection and radiation. Conduction is the transfer of heat through collision of particles. Convection is the transfer of heat through the movements of particles (ie. hot particle rises, cold particle sinks). Vacuum is made up of nothing (when there is no particle, it is vacuum), and so, it is unable to transfer heat through conduction and convection at all, making it the best thermal insulator
A thermal insulator. The best is a vacuum, but static air is good, if it can be contained in a mat of fibres for example.
The best thermal insulator is vacuum as in the gap of the thermos bottle. Another god thermal insulators is air (as in closed cell polyurethane foam or double glaze windows, or any gas in closed environment.
Styrofoam is the best material to use as an insulator. Styrofoam is the best insulator, since the temperature of the water in the styrofoam glass decreased the least. If you mean what "state" of matter is the best insulator then you're probably looking for gas as the answer. The state of matter that is best as a thermal insulator is gas.
