Is germanium a good conductor of electricity?
Germanium is a good conductor because it is between silicon and tin, its a metalloid. Tin can conduct electricity and so can germanium
Is germanium a insulator?
No it is a conductor.
Is a good conductor of electricity a poor conductor of electricity?
No
What metal is a semi conductor?
No metal is semiconductor. By definition metal is conductor. There are metalloids elements. Like silicon and germanium. They are semiconductors. There is no hard and fast definition of such elements.
Is rhodium a good conductor of heat or electricity?
Rhodium is an excellent conductor of electricity.
Is germanium a good conductor of electricity?
Germanium is a good conductor because it is between silicon and tin, its a metalloid. Tin can conduct electricity and so can germanium
An element that is a non-metal but conductor of electricity?
Silicon or Germanium Graphite is an excellent electrical conductor
What element is the second best conductor of electricity?
Carbon nanotubes or graphene
Is germanium a conductor or a insulator?
conductor
Are metalloids Conductor of heat or electricity?
They are only fair to high (intermediate) conductors of electricity and heat, except that silicon is a good heat conductor. Metalloids include boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, and tellurium.
Is germanium a conductor or an insulator?
neither, germanium is a semiconductor
Which element is a semi-conductor of electricity?
Most conductors conduct both heat and electricity well. A semiconductor is a conductor whose resistance is between that of a conductor and an insulator. An example of a semiconductor is silicon which is used in electronic appliances
Is germanium a insulator?
No it is a conductor.
Is germanium a insulator of electricity?
Germanium is a semiconductor
Is gold a better conductor than germanium?
Yes. Pure gold is a much better conductor than pure germanium is.
What is the definition of semicondutor?
A semiconductor is a substance or material that conducts electricity better than an insulator but not as well as a conductor. Examples of semiconductors include silicon and germanium.
Is a good conductor of electricity a poor conductor of electricity?
No
