The element mercury is one of the poorest conductors of the elemental metals. The alloy nickel-chromium (Nichrome) is very resistive and is used to construct the heating elements in many appliances incorporating a thermal source. Saying that a metal is a "bad conductor" can only be supported by a comparison. As thermal or electrical conductivity was not specified, we can only say that in metals, the effectiveness of a metal in conducting one is generally an indication of its effectiveness in conducting the other. Metals that conduct electricity well also usually conduct heat well.
A Reddish metal, a good conductor of electricity and heat, ductility, tensile strength, malleability, and good, clean fun!
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.
Glass has a higher conductivity than thin plastic but,it is still lower than metal so metal may be a better conductor
Graphite is a non metal conductor.
there are no good or bad conductor there are conductor ,semiconductor and isolator.
metal
metal
No.
Being a metal, it is a good conductor.
there is no metal to conduct to.
I'd say metal and iron.
electricity! Because it is a non-metal
arsenic is a non-metal because it is a poor and bad conductor of heat and electricity
A metal spoon touching a hot pan. The pan heats the spoon. The spoon serves as a conductor of heat. This is an example of conduction.
A good conductor of heat is metal as it has free electrons that can also carry Energy aswell as the partials themselves. This can be used for a radiator so the room can be heated. A bad conductor of heat is polystyrene. This can be used for plastic cups so the drink stay hot longer.
Water is a conductor that is not metal.
conductor its metal
