Is mercury a better conductor of heat than glass?

No, it is not. The best thermal conductor among the metals is silver, and it is the best electrical conductor as well. There is a general "rule" in the natural world that thermal and electrical conductivity are proportionate among metals; they "track" together. If a metal is a better thermal conductor than another metal, it will be a better electrical conductor as well. It should be noted that the best thermal conductor of all known materials is the allotrope of carbon we call diamond. Interestingly, diamond is an electrical insulator.


Does a glass get hot when you put hot water in it?

Glass conducts electricity well letting the heat flow through it. 2. OOPS! (it is only at very high temperatures that glass conducts electricity, and even then it is not a good conductor.) And glass is not a very good conductor of heat, but it will conduct heat albeit slowly.

Why does liquid heat faster when microwaved in a glass cup instead of a ceramic mug?

Perhaps because the glass is in amorphous structure and ceramic is in crystalline structure. Glass is a better conductor of heat than ceramic is.
