Does tin foil attract heat?
Tin foil is generally made of aluminum and can attract/transfer heat. Aluminium is widely used as cooling in computer systems, which spreads the heat all over the heatsink so the air can cool the aluminum down.
Why is tin foil not a good thermal insulator?
because it conducts heat very well.
Is tin fiol a good insulator or a good thermal conductor?
tin foil is bolth, because it is a metal so electricity goes through it and it holds heat well
How can you prove tinfoil is a good insulator through research?
You can easily prove that tinfoil is a good insulator a few different ways through research! 1) Construct a tin foil hat and wear it outside on a nice day. 2) Wrap a wooden match up in a strip of tin foil. Be sure the match tip is exposed at each end, then light the match that's rolled in the tin foil with another match. 3) Find a thermos and fill it with hot water. Close the thermos. Wait 3 hours. The water is still hot because its made of tin foil!
Is tin foil opaque?
yes??
How hot is a ball of tin foil after microwaving it?
Thin pieces of metal, like aluminium foil will heat up very quickly. The sharp creases can cause sparking and a fire.
Can you put hot glue on tin foil?
Yes you can.
How does tin foil not get hot?
Tinfoil is a special sort of thin metal which is heat resistant so you could try to heat it but it just wont get hot so....just give up...Jade gravells...xxx
How come when i touch tin foil in the oven it doesnt burn my skin?
The tin foil happens not to be so hot, therefore its inability not to burn your skin. Yeah I got that much, just wondering why the tin foil isn't hot in a 450 degree oven, oh and this is the questionnaire
Why does tin foil help reflect heat?
tin foil help reflect heat because it attracts heat and since its shining sun is most likely to come toward it.
Is tin foil a good conductor of heat?
There are three different ways of transferring heat. These are by radiation, conduction and convection. The sun's rays heat the surface of the earth by radiation. If you were to wrap a ice cube in Aluminium foil and place it in hot sunlight it would take longer to melt because the sun's radiation would be reflected. However if placed an ice cube wrapped in foil on a hot plate, it would melt just as quickly as if there was no foil. This is because in this case Conduction is the main way heat is passed to the cube and aluminum is a good conductor.
Is foil a conducter?
Cooking foil is like regular aluminum foil. In summary, cooking foil and tin foil alike are good conductors of heat AND electricity.

Why are marathon runners given tin foil?
To reflect heat off the runners.
Can you store pudding in tin foil pans?
yesAnswer:What is often called tin foil is actually aluminum foil/ When wrapped around an object it acts an an insulator reflecting heat. If the object is hot it reflects the heat back in, if the object is cold it reflects the heat way from the object (keeps it out)
Is foil a good conductor of heat?
Tin foil is a metal and metals are generally good conductors of heat, so i would have to say yes. Hope this helps T.M.M :-)
