Yes. Copper is an excellent conductor of heat. It is the second most heat conductive of all elemental metals, behind silver. Note that carbon in its diamond allotrope is far better at conducting heat than any metal - or anything else known. Copper is a superb metallic heat conductor. That's why you see it on the bottom of some cooking utensiles, or advertised as being clad between thin layers of stainless steel on the heating surfaces of pots and pans.

∙ 14y agoyes copper is a good conductor like zinc, in a wet cell battery it is good tooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

∙ 12y agoThe thermal conductivity of copper is 401 W·m−1·K−1 (watts per meter Kelvin). Which makes it one of the most conductive elements.

Is copper a bad heat conductor?
No. Copper is a good conductor of heat.
Why is copper a really good conductor of heat?
Yes because copper is a metal.
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
Is a copper an insulator of heat?
No, actually copper conducts heat. It is also a very good conductor of electricity.
What is the mechanical properties of copper?
Copper is ductile, malleable, and a good conductor of heat. It also has good brazing and soldering properties.
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
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.
What is an good conductor to heat and electricity?
Copper is metal found in nature which is a good conductor of heat and electricity.
What is a good heat conductor?
Copper and aluminum. Most heat sinks are made of Aluminum (cheap and a good conductor of heat).
Why are hot water tanks made out of copper?
keep heat in copper is a good heat conductor.
Would a copper pipe work better as a conductor or an insulator?
Copper is a good conductor, that's why it is used to make electrical wire.
What is an element that's a good conductor of heat?
Copper
Is a copper nail an insulators?
Copper is a very good conductor for heat and electricity.
Is copper a good condutor of heat?
Any metal substance is a good conductor of head and electricity. Therefore, yes, it is a good conductor of heat. It is also malleable. That is why there are copper wires in existence.
Why is copper a really good conductor of heat?
Yes because copper is a metal.
