Which are the worse conductors of heat liquids or gases?
Gases are the worse conductors of heat . This is because their particles are very spaced out and so can collide only infrequently.
Are all insulators and conductors solids?
No, most gases are good insulators. Fluids can be good conductors. Mercury is normally a liquid and is a good conductor.
Is helium the best thermal conductor?
All gases are very poor thermal conductors
What are the physical properties to the exceptions of the physical properties of metals and nonmetals?
Metals * Good electrical conductors and heat conductors. * Malleable - can be beaten into thin sheets. * Ductile - can be stretched into wire. * Possess metallic luster. * Opaque as thin sheet. * Solid at room temperature (except Hg). Nonmetals * Poor conductors of heat and electricity. * Brittle - if a solid. * Nonductile. * Do not possess metallic luster. * Transparent as a thin sheet. * Solids, liquids or gases at room temperature
Good conductors of electricity are often good conductors of heat?
Generally speaking, materials that are good conductors of heat are good conductors of electricity. But there is a notable exception. Diamond, an allotrope of carbon, conducts heat better than any metal, but it is an electrical insulator.
Are semiconductors noble gases?
Definitely not! Gases are not semiconductors. and the noble gases are not conductors even if frozen.
Which are the worse conductors of heat liquids or gases?
Gases are the worse conductors of heat . This is because their particles are very spaced out and so can collide only infrequently.
Poor conductors of heat and electicity?
gases and many plastic materials
What are the types of poor conductors of heat?
Gases. Especially if you keep it from circulating.
Are solids better conductors than liquids and gases?
particle density
Experiment to prove that gases are poor thermal conductors?
There are many experiments you can perform in order to prove that gases are poor thermal conductors. You can try heating up an enclosed space from the top and feeling the bottom for example.
Are all insulators and conductors solids?
No, most gases are good insulators. Fluids can be good conductors. Mercury is normally a liquid and is a good conductor.
Why are liquids and gases not good conductors of heat?
i have no earthly idea. I'm clueless
Are non metals?
non metals are gases and are poor conductors at room temperature
Are metals non-metaleable?
non metals are gases and are poor conductors at room temperature
Which group are the poorest conductors of elcetricity?
Next to the vacuum, I'd guess the Nobel gases.
Is helium the best thermal conductor?
All gases are very poor thermal conductors
