What is the ability to conduct heat electricity or sound?
The ability to conduct heat or electricity is acutally called conductivity.
What materials conduct heat and electricity?
The best conductor for heat and electricity is any type of metal element.
A student studies an unknown material during a science experiment She discovers that the material is ductile and can conduct heat and electricity She can identify the substance as?
There are a quite a few answers that fit this question. Gold is very ductile and is an excellent conductor of heat and electricity.
What material does not allow light to pass through is a good conductor of heat but not a good conductor of electricity?
Non metals are poor conductors of heat and are not conductors of electricity , except for carbon , which is can conduct a little bit of electricity. Non metals are poor conductors of heat and are not conductors of electricity , except for carbon , which is can conduct a little bit of electricity.
What materials conduct heat and which do not?
Insulators do not conduct heat and are therefore non-metals. Metals do conduct heat, and vey well may i add. But, for the record, you're thinking of electricity. Potatoes conduct heat, and they're not metals. Anyone who has held a lump in their hand will tell you that playdough conducts heat, in fact, rather a lot of other materials conduct heat and water also conduct heat
