Is copper a bad heat conductor?
No. Copper is a good conductor of heat.
Is copper or aluminum a better heat conductor?
copper is better
The copper is an insulator?
yes copper is actually a very good insulator to both heat and electric conducting A2: NO. Copper is about the second-best electrical conductor, next to silver. It is also a very Good heat conductor. Try heating an iron poker in a fire. The heat travels slowly to the opposite end. A copper wire, however, if stuck in the fire, will transfer heat Very quickly--you won't be able to hold the other end of it! wikipedia.org/copper
Why is copper the fastest conductor of heat?
COPPER IS NOT THE FASTEST CONDUCTOR OF HEAT. IT IS SILVER. But Copper is widely used because it is cheaper and more readily available than Silver. Copper is a fast conductor of heat because of the arrangements of this atoms and molecules as heat is caused due to vibration of molecules and eventual collisions.
Is a copper an insulator of heat?
No, actually copper conducts heat. It is also a very good conductor of electricity.
Is copper a bad heat conductor?
No. Copper is a good conductor of heat.
Is copper a good conductor of heat and electricity?
yes copper is a good conductor of heat only becuase it comes in the conductor of heat
How much better is the thermal conductivity of a copper pot compared to a steel pot?
Copper is a much better conductor of heat than steel. This is why stainless steel cookware is clad in copper; it gets the heat in more effectively. Regarding a copper pot compared to a steel pot - I don't think anyone makes solid copper cookware. It leave a strange metallic taste in the mouth.
Why is copper used to make cooking pots and pans?
Because it is a great conductor. Gold and platinum are better but would make the pot too expensive. The bottom surface conducts the heat to evenly warm up the contents. The next best pot or pan for this is cast iron. Copper is a good conductor so the saucepan heats up better if it has a copper bottom.
What else apart from electricity is copper a conductor of?
Copper is a very good conductor of heat.
Is copper a poor conductor of energy?
No. Copper is a good conductor of both electricity and heat.
Which is a better conductor of heat air or a copper wire?
A copper wire is a much better conductor of heat than air is.
What did Paul Revere use copper for?
Plates for printing handbills and copper was used in pots and pan bottoms. It still is today in the Revere pot and pan line of products. Copper is a good conductor of heat.
Why is a cooking pot made out of copper cooks faster?
Copper is a conductor, which means it conducts heat more quickly, hence heating up faster. The same reason is for why copper is used in electricity cabling.
Is copper or aluminum a better heat conductor?
copper is better
