Why? well read on...
Wood is a poor conductor of heat because it is a covalently bound compound, meaning they don't have loose electrons that freely move around. Ionic compounds, like metals, have those free electrons that carry heat and energy all over the material.

Why is wood the best conductor?
Wood is not a good conductor.
Is wood a poor heat conductor?
Wood is a poor conductor of heat.
Is wood thermal conductor?
Wood is a thermal insulator. It is a poor conductor of heat.
Is wood an efficient conductor of heat energy?
No
Is wood conductor or a insulator?
wood is an insulator because charges stay on the point of contact.
Is a wood log a insulator or an conductor?
Wood in itself is an insulator. But when wet, the water particles can conduct electricity.. Hence wet wood will be a conductor, although not a very good conductor, since the current passes only through a very small area
Is matchstick is a conductor?
No because it is made of wood. Wood is not a conductor. To prove this you can us e a multimeter or CRO
Is wood a semiconductor?
no wood is not any type of conductor
Is wood a conductor or an insulator of electricity?
Wood is an insulator.
Is a wood stick a conductor?
No.
Why the wood is bad conductor of heat?
It is due to the arrangement of molecules of wood. As the molecules of wood is far from each other it cant pass heat through its molecules. For that wood is a bad conductor.
Is wood a insulater or conductor?
Wood is a very good insulator
