The better a metal conducts electricity, the better it is at conducting heat also. In order from worse to better, Carbon, Iron, Aluminum, Copper, Silver. But any metal is going to be fair, it is why metal is colder when you touch it, because it conducts heat better.

What would be an example of a good thermal conductor?
Graphene is the best thermal conductor. Any metal or metallic objects such as a frying pan would be a good thermal conductor, including diamond.
What material best transfer heat?
Metals are known to be good conductors of heat as well as good conductors of electricity. Diamond is an exception though, being one of the best thermal conductors but a very poor electrical conductor.
What is a thermal conductor metal?
Good thermal conductivity is characteristic of the metals. Some of the best conductors are silver, copper, gold, aluminum, nickel and iron. Please see the link.
Why is silver a good thermal conductor?
Silver is a good thermal conductor as it's a metallic element with many free electrons available for heat transfer.
Is good heat conductor a metal?
If you mean, is metal a good conductor of heat, yes. That is one of the characteristics of a metal.
What material is good conductor of thermal energy?
a metal

Is aluminum a good heat conductor?
Yes, being a metal, aluminum is a good thermal conductor.
What metal is a good conductor of thermal energy and electric current?
aluminum, copper,
What is shiny element good conductor of thermal energy and electric currents?
a metal
What shiny metal is a good conductor of thermal energy and electric current?
Tranition metals
Can heat move easily through a good thermal conductor?
Yes, that is what "good thermal conductor" means.
What material best transfer heat?
Metals are known to be good conductors of heat as well as good conductors of electricity. Diamond is an exception though, being one of the best thermal conductors but a very poor electrical conductor.
What is a good thermal conductor?
steel
Which is the best conductor of heat between gold and lead?
When we consider the two elements gold and lead, we find that gold has a (ball park) thermal conductivity of about ten times that of lead. If you guessed that gold is about ten times as good a conductor of electricity as lead (based on the information presented regarding thermal conductivity), you'd be on target. In general, thermal and electrical conductivity both "track" from metal to metal. Good electrical conductors are generally good thermal conductors.
What is a thermal conductor metal?
Good thermal conductivity is characteristic of the metals. Some of the best conductors are silver, copper, gold, aluminum, nickel and iron. Please see the link.
A material that is a good thermal conductor would?
A material that is a good thermal conductor would hold in a lot of heat. These thermal conductors would also transfer heat easily.
