In a foam there is a large gap between the conduction band and the valence of band in the atoms makng up the foam. If any object is to conduct electricity through it the gap between the conduction band amd the valance should be minimun or overlapping so that the electrons in the valance band can go into conduction band and conduct electricity

Why are styrofoam boxes used to keep food hot for a long time?
Styrofoam is a brand trade mark for extruded polystyrene foam. This foam is a very good insulator, and will trap heat, so keeping food hot for a long times.
How can two objects that are the same temperature feel as if they are at different temperatures?
Every substance has its nature for example water's boiling point is 100'C it wouldn't start boiling at -100'C instead it would freeze. It also depends on is that substance is a conductor or an insulator.
What does conducter mean in science?
In science, conduct means to serve as a channel. For example, water and most metals will conduct electricity.
