Depends on what you want to use it for.
It's good if the base of a frying pan conducts easily as it means it'll heat the contents fast.
It's bad if the handle of a frying pan conducts easily as the handle will get too hot to hold and burn you.

A material that supports a plant and conducts nutrients?
The material that supports a plant and conducts nutrients is the stem. Plants with rigid stems have hardbacks and are woody.
What is the meaning of a good conducter of electricity?
A good conductor will pass electricity with little or no resistance. Resistance will cause the voltage to drop as the current increases. The least resistance will cause the least drop in voltage and is therefore a good conductor.
Is saltwater a condutor or insulator?
It conducts electricity. REALLY good conductor.
What does conductor mean in science?
It means that it's a material whose outer shell electrons move freely across the surface of the material. Conductors can carry an electric current
Why can't a non conducting material be charged easily by rubbing?
I don't think there is such a thing as a "non-conducting metal". All metals are good conductors.
If a material conducts electricity easily what will it have?
It must have a low resistance to the flow of electric current.
A material that conducts heat poorly is a good?
insulator. Insulators have low thermal conductivity, which means they are not good conductors of heat and help to slow down the transfer of heat. This property makes them useful for insulating buildings, electrical wires, and various other applications where heat needs to be retained or kept out.
What do you call a material that conducts heat well?
A material with a good thermal conductivity or a thermal conductor.
What material conducts electric current poorly?
A material that conducts electric current poorly is an insulator. Insulators have high resistance to the flow of electricity due to their tightly bound electrons, which do not move easily. Examples of insulators include rubber, plastic, and glass.
Which material is malleable and conducts electricity wood ice metal or oil?
Metal is the material that is malleable and conducts electricity.
What is a material that easily allows the flow of electric charge through it is called a semiconductor b insulator c superconductor d conductor?
conducts
What is a material that conducts current?
Material with high resistance
Why do they use aluminum in phones?
It's a very common metal, and it conducts heat pretty well, making it a good material for Heat sinks and the such, as computers generate massive amounts of heat and must be constantly cooled.
What is a material that conducts electric current?
Material with high resistance
What is it called if a material conducts easily?
It is said to have a low resistance:A low thermal resistivity for heatA low electrical resistivity for electricityA low opacity or high transparicyfor light.
Why can a current easily be created in a conductor but not in an insulator?
because a conductor "conducts" electricity. unlike insulators. an insulator is a material whose internal charges do not move freely.
What is a material that conducts electric current slowly?
Material with high resistance
