Not a good electrical conductor or insulator?
babies, rocks, cabbage, and habberdasheries are neither good electrical conductors, nor insulators.
Does slate conduct electric?
Slate is an electrical insulator. Slate is not a conductor of electricity.
Is Neon metal or non metal conductor?
Neon is neither a metal nor non-metal. it is a noble gas.
Is wood plastic glass insulator?
Yes. Wood, plastic, and glass are all indeed an insulator. The reason being is that neither of those conduct energy well. But a few materials that would be very good CONDUCTORS would be copper, tin, or aluminum. Hope that helped ;)
Which parent contributes the most genetically?
Neither, each of the two parents contribute 1/2 of the genetic material.
Are wooden blocks conductor or insulator?
Insulator.
Is germanium a conductor or an insulator?
neither, germanium is a semiconductor
Is sponge a electrical conductor or insulator?
An insulator or neither. The water inside of the sponge is what would conduct electricity.
What is an element that is neither a good conductor or a good insulator?
silicon, which is a semiconductor.
Materials that are neither good conductors nor good insulators?
a material is neither a good conductor nor a perfect insulator because the number of free electrons determine the conductivity of a material.when we charge the material by electrification the transfer of electrons from one body to another takes place.and the atom is ionized because in each atom electrons are attracted by other material and net charge on the body is positive.but this is not permanent nor temporary.as we know that earth is a charged body and charge on conductor can be discharge by earthing a conductor and it is no more conductor.similarly in insulators the aoms locally polarize by bringing close to any charged body and the charge on insulator is temporary because there is deficiency of electrons.if we continously charged the insulator material finally a stage is reached when it becomes conductor e.g when clouds are attracted they charged the air and air becomes conductor and lightening strikes,we also know that air is insulator but due to excess charging air becomes conductor.
Is chalk a good insulator?
chalk is an insulator because heat does not flow through it as easily.

Is air a conductor of heat or insulator?
I think it's neither really. Air doesn't insulate heat very well in fact it lets quite a bit out . so it's not a good insulator if you wanted an insulator you'd use some lagging material or a vacuum flask. Air does conduct heat slowly and inefficiently in no particular direction . but not quickly & in a definite direction like metal does (once it's got up to temperature). basically if you wanted an insulator or a conductor you'd definitely choose some other material entirely for the task , because Air isn't much good at either.
What is the difference between semiconductor and electronics?
A semiconductor is a device which is neither a Insulator nor a conductor. They behave like one in the right conditions.
Is chalk board eraser conductor or insulator?
It would be an insulator- chalk board erasers normally consist of two parts, a wooden handle and a soft pad that wipes off the chalk from the board. Neither of these parts are conductors of electricity.
Does slate conduct electric?
Slate is an electrical insulator. Slate is not a conductor of electricity.
Is steel a insulator?
No, steel is neither a thermal (heat) nor electrical insulator
