Explain what the terms ductility and thermal conductivity mean?
a) High ductility means that the metal can be drawn (pulled) to form a wire. Thermal conductivity tells us how easily heat is conducted through a standard area of metal. b) Useful in forming copper wire which is used to conduct electricity. c) Metal handles of cooking utensils can become hot. Plastic or wood have low thermal conductivity, and thus the end held by the user can be much cooler than the end of a metal handle would be.
Best metal heat transfer?
The metal with the best heat transfer is silver. Copper and aluminum hold second and third place in terms of thermal conductivity. The thermal conductivity of silver is 418 watts per meter Kelvin.
Which of these terms means energy transferred between objects at different temperatures?
thermal
What is the English measurement of thermal energy?
Traditionally the BTU (British Thermal Unit), but now we usually use kilojoules
What terms describes the transfer of energies between objects that have different average thermal kinetic energies?
heat

What is a term that can transmits heat and electricity easily?
I think the word you might be looking for is conductivity. Look up the definition and see if this word is what you are looking for.
Can you put this in terms 168.2ms for conductivity that i can understand?
Siemens is a unit of conductivity - it is the reciprocal of resistance. Mhos is also used for this measure.
What are water properties in terms of inter and intra molecular forces?
The ability of watwer molecules to be associated by hydrogen bonds has influence on the surface tension, melting point, boiling point, specific heat capacity, thermal conductivity, etc.
