No they do not. They keep the heat in. In other words they are Insulators.

What is an element that is not malleable and does not conduct electricity?
nonmetal
What are three kinds of matter that conducts heat poorly?
Things that are nonmetal conduct heat poorly. These insulators would include plastic, rubber, Styrofoam and wood. This is due to the characteristics of the materials.
Does phosphorous conduct heat?
Everything conducts heat, but phosphorous is a non-metal, so as a guess I would say it doesn't conduct well
When a metal reacts with a nonmetal are the substances good conductors of electric current?
The product of a metal reacting with a nonmetal is a salt; in solid form these do not conduct electricity well, but dissolved in water they do.
What can conduct heat poorly?
plastic and wood Actually Mr. peanut wouldn't conduct heat...
Identify a nonmetal and why is it classified as a nonmetal?
Carbon: It doesn't conduct electricity, it isn't malleable, it isn't ductile, it doesn't conduct heat very well.
What is the chemical differences between the metal and nonmetal characteristics of an object?
one of them cannot conduct heat
A material is nonmagnetic and gaseous and does not conduct heat or electricity It will however react with other elements It is most likely a what?
Nonmetal.
What is an element that is not malleable and does not conduct electricity?
nonmetal
Is the ability to conduct electricity a property of a nonmetal?
no

What are subconductors?
A sub-conductor in Chemistry is a metalloid. Since it's not a nonmetal they can conduct some electricity and heat but not as well and fully like a complete metal.
What are properties of nonmetal?
Nonmetals tend to have lower melting and boiling points than metals. They tend to be dull and brittle. They do not conduct heat or electricity. They are insulators.
Is a nonconductor a metal or non metal?
Almost everything is a good conductor of sound, but a conductor of heat and electricity are usually only metals. A nonmetal can be an insulator, or something that doesn't conduct things, for heat and electricity.
What is one characteristic of a nonmetal?
Metals conduct electricity; non-metals do not.
Does a teapot conduct heat?
can a teapot conduct heat
What are nonmetal that are conductors of heat and electricity?
Semiconductors
