Rubber is a really good insulator, but almost all wire made today is insulated with a synthetic like PVC.
No, a rubber duck is not a conductor. Rubber is an insulating material, meaning it does not allow electricity to flow through it easily. Therefore, a rubber duck would not conduct electricity and is safe to use in water.
No, rubber is not a conductor. In fact it's quite a good insulator, though not suitable for long term use as it perishes in the outside weather.
Virtually every substance is a conductor of electrical current to a greater or lesser degree. We use the best ones to build extension cords and to connect electronic components to one another, and we use the worst ones as 'insulators'. Rubber is one of the worst ones.
Rubber is a poor conductor of electricity, so it does not attract lightning. Lightning seeks the path of least resistance to the ground, and rubber does not provide that path due to its insulating properties. This makes rubber a safer material to use in situations where there is a risk of lightning strikes.
Most metals.
No; an insulator by definition does not conduct electricity. We use these to protect ourselves from electricity, like the rubber in rubber gloves. Conductors, in contrast, are good...uh, conductors of electricity.
Most tires made today use a combination of natural rubber and synthetic rubber to achieve the maximum tread life and safety rating.
For wiring, we only use copper and silver. The most common conductor is copper. Almost all wires use copper as a conductor.
no, it needs to be purified using electrolysis for it to be pure enough to use as a conductor

An orchestra conductor uses a conducting baton.
Rubber tracks are normally used for making new tires. You can find them used on many different websites.
