∙ 11y agothe softer metals such as sodium, copper, lead, silver, Mercury and tin are the better conductors of both heat and electricity. However, many of these, such as sodium, mercury and tin, are not used for applications requiring conducting properties due to other unfavorable characteristics such as toxicity or strong reactivity with surroundings.

∙ 13y agoYes, sodium is a fairly good thermal conductor. Among elements it is rated number 12 from the top.
Thermal conductors are rated by W/cmK. Without going into the explanation, a higher number represents a better conductor, and 0.0 means no conductivity at all. Sodium is rated at 1.41 W/cmK. By comparison, copper, which is second best as a thermal conductor among elements, is rated at 4.01 W/cmK.

∙ 10y agoYes, sodium does conduct heat because it as a free electron on the outer shell.

∙ 11y agono,it does not sodium conduct thermal energy

What is an good conductor to heat and electricity?
Copper is metal found in nature which is a good conductor of heat and electricity.
Is radon a good conductor of electricity and heat?
Refer to the periodic table of elements and check if radon is a metal or not. If it is a metal then it will be good conductor of heat and electricity. If it is a gas it will not be good conductor of heat and electricity
Is sodium a good conductor of electricity?
yes
