What is a capacitor made of?
A basic capacitor is made up of two conductors separated by an insulator, or dielectric. The dielectric can be made of paper, plastic, mica, ceramic, glass, a vacuum or nearly any other nonconductive material. Some capacitors are called electrolytics, meaning that their dielectric is made up of a thin layer of oxide formed on a aluminum or tantalum foil conductor.
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.

If you can think of any objects that are made of glass, rubber, or plastic they are all insulators. (think of food containers things you drink out of -most of them are conductors) Most things made of metal are conductors. (metal things you eat with, metal furniture objects, anything copper)

Are coins good heat conductors?
Yes... Especially pennies because of the copper in them. Most coins are made of metal: nickel, copper, iron or steel. Some rare and expensive ones are made of nearly pure gold and silver. All the metals are good electricity conductors.
