Why do spoons conduct heat?

Spoons conduct heat because they are made of metal, which is a good conductor of heat. When a hot substance comes into contact with the metal spoon, the heat quickly travels through the spoon and warms up the handle.


What is having the ability to conduct electricity or heat?

Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.The metal conduct electricity because they have unbound electrons (or valence electrons) that can conduct the electricity as the electrons can move. Similarly, they conduct heat because the electrons are free to vibrate which causes neighbouring electrons to vibrate and so on along the entire piece of metal. These vibrations cause the metal to conduct the heat.Graphite, a type of carbon, is also a good conductor of electricity. Graphite is soot.
