Glass has a higher conductivity than thin plastic but,it is still lower than metal so metal may be a better conductor

Examples of insulators and conductors?
Insulators: wood, plastic Conductors: Copper, Gold
Which is an example of a conductor?
Pretty much any metal will conduct electricity. Some common examples are copper, gold, iron, silver, aluminum, lead, etc.This also includes humans.See the Related Questions for the best ones.
Is nonmetals a semiconductors?
Graphite is a non metal conductor.
Screwdriver handle conductor or insulator?
The metal part itself would be a conductor in theory but the handle would be an insulator as it is usually rubber or plastic.
What is a good electrical conductor when melted and is a good insulator in its solid state?
Glass is a good conductor when melted. Most precision glass melters use gas burners to get the glass to a molten state, then they use electrodes immersed in the glass to electrically heat it to the required temperature.
Is glass microscope slide a conductor or an insulator?
It is a insulator because glass is not a metal so it is NOT A CONDUCTOR.
Is a glass slide a conductor or insulator?
It is a insulator because glass is not a metal so it is NOT A CONDUCTOR.
Is a glass microscope slide is a conductor?
It is a insulator because glass is not a metal so it is NOT A CONDUCTOR.

Why is glass a bad conductor of electricity?
there is no metal to conduct to.
What cools faster glass bottle or can?
Considering cans are metal and metal is a better heat conductor than glass (any cook will confirm that from years of burnt fingers) then I'd say GLASS would be able to cool quicker. It's easier for glass to loose thermodynamic energy than metal.

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.
What conducts most heat plastic or metal?
Metal is a better conductor
What cools liquid faster glass or shiny metal?
Metal is a better conductor than glass and the heat will conduct out better, hence, water will cool down faster in metal container. Thermal conductivity for glass is approx. 1 W/m.K For Metal Aluminum 204 W/m.K Iron (pure) 73 W/m.K Nickel Chromium (80%:20%) 12 W/m.K
