No, gold is not the best conductor. At room temperature, silver is a slightly better conductor. The best electrical conductors are the so-called superconductors, which are materials that only exhibit the property of superconductivity at very low (cryogenic) temperatures. When exhibiting the property of superconductivity, they have a resistance of zero.

Does silver or gold conduct electricity better?
Silver is the best electrical conductor between metals.
Which would be the best insulator carbon or silicon or aluminum or oxygen?
Oxygen. Carbon as diamond is a good electrical insulator, (graphite is an electrical conductor), silicon is a semiconductor so has limited electrical conductivity and aluminium is a metal and a good electrical conductor.
Is chlorine an electrical conductor?

Is gold a conductor or non conductor?
gold is not the best conductor of electricity , silver is actually a better conductor than gold.
Which is the best conductor copper gold or tungsten?
Gold, marginally. However, gold melts at a much lower temperature than silver does, so it can't carry as much current before it melts.AnswerThe original answer is incorrect. Silver is the best conductor, followed by copper, then gold.
What golden metal is used as an electrical conductor?
Gold (Ag)
