Distinguish between a heat conductor and an insulator.?
A heat conductor readily conducts thermal energy; an insulator inhibits flow of thermal energy.
A material that conducts thermal energy well is a thermal?
Something that conducts thermal energy well is a thermal...conductor. If it does not conduct well it is called an insulator.
Which term defines something that does not transfer thermal energy efficiently?
conductor
How is a conductor different then an insulator?
A conductor is very good with energy it can produce energy (A conductor). A insulator cannot produce heat. You don't get any energy out of an insulator.
Is a diamond a thermal and electrical conductor?
A diamond is a superior conductor of thermal energy (heat). It's better at this than anything else we know of. But diamond is a poor conductor of electricity. It's actually a pretty good insulator.

Material that condscts thermal energy well?
a conductor does, while an insulator poorly conducts thermal energy!
What metal is a good conductor of thermal energy and electric current?
aluminum, copper,
Is a sizzling plate a conductor or insulator?
conductor is the answer. why? because it is a sizzling plate it is of course absorbing heat into the plate and making it conductor because of the thermal energy being high due to the temperature, so high thermal energy is equal to being hot. Hopes this helps

Is glass a conductor or insulator of thermal or electrical energy?
Glass is an insulator of both energies. It does not conduct thermal energy because only it's surface warms up. It does not conduct electrical energy because its atoms do not have free electrons, which cause this process in metals.
A material that conducts thermal energy poorly?
A material that doesn't conduct heat well is called an insulator.
What material conducts thermal energy poorly is a?
thermal insulator
Is air a poor conductor of thermal energy?
It depends what you are comparing it to, if for instance you compare it to a vaccuum then it is an infinitely better conductor. Compared to copper however it is very poor, because obviously air is a mixture of various gasses and gasses are mostly empty space; because transferal of heat is through one particle passing on energy to another through vibrations it stands to reason that the less particles you have in a set volume the less efficiently it will transfer heat.
